Town Hall Meeting – Are Safe Drug Injection Sites Safe for the Black Community?

By Events

WED.JUNE.13 (Philadelphia, PA) — A Community Town Hall Meeting: Are Safe Drug Injection Sites Safe for the Black Community? The Issue: Mayor Jim Kenny, District Attorney Larry Krasner and drug policy reform advocates are promoting the idea of creating sites where drug users can take drugs under medical supervision. They believe this will reduce the harm that drug users might inflict on the community.

We invite you to attend/participate in a Town Hall Meeting to hear about and discuss this very important issue.
