Just Safety Dialogues – Flagstaff

October 24, 2023 @ 5:30 pm - 7:30 pm

Free

Just Communities Arizona is excited to announce the Just Safety Dialogues, a series of three thought-provoking events taking place across the state. These dialogues aim to foster discussions on holistic and inclusive community safety by highlighting examples from around the US and here in Arizona.

Each event will feature a panel of representatives from national organizations as well as some from the host community (Tucson, Phoenix, Flagstaff) that are creating safety and wellbeing in their communities in new and creative ways.

The aim of these events is to expand our definition of “safety” beyond preventing and responding to crime to include meeting basic human needs, bolstering economic security, addressing mental and behavioral health and wellness, and providing community cohesion and belonging. The panels will showcase the tremendous capacity of local communities to address their own needs.

 

Panelists:
Mona Cadena, Director of Advocacy and Campaigns at EJUSA, on violence reduction strategies grounded in public health and healing, including community-based street outreach, violence interrupters, and hospital-based violence intervention.
Christina Delgado, SW Regional Advocacy Associate, Community Justice Action Fund, on addressing gun violence in Black and Brown communities.
Haley Coles, Executive Director, Sonoran Prevention Works, on harm reduction and working with people who use drugs to address overdoses.
Northern Arizona University
SBS-Castro Building in Room 110
