Crime Prevention and Re-Entry Public Forum

On Tuesday, March 10, 2009, Assemblyman Jerry Green, 22nd Legislative District, will host a Crime Prevention and Re-Entry Forum. The forum will be held at the Rose of Sharon Church located at 825 West 7th Street, Plainfield, New Jersey. The forum will begin at 6pm and end at 8:30pm. The focus of the forum is to inform the residents of Plainfield, and surrounding neighborhoods, of viable solutions to deter crime and recidivism and lessen the burden criminality puts onto the community.

This panel forum will be led by keynote speakers from State Government as well as community organizations. The Attorney General’s Office, the Department of Corrections, the Department of Education, and the New Jersey State Parole Board are the State agencies participating in the forum. Organizations such as Volunteers of America, Goodwill, New Jersey Families Against Mandatory Minimums, as well as other community-oriented programs will be participating on the panel discuss.

Come out and listen to what the State and local communities are doing to prevent crime.
