Follow on Google News | Impact Church Set To Host Community Forum To Address Race RelationsCommunity residents are encouraged to come out and express their concerns in a peaceful and productive environment where law enforcement and city officials will address residents concerns as they relate to policing and gun violen
By: Impact Church "Now is a season of thoughtful and intentional action. A season where the Lord has given us greater focus to make a Christimpact in the world, in our region and particularly in the State of New Jersey. Together we must be leaders of social justice and systematic change for the benefit of all Americans. The racial problems we have in America are real. Until America, as a whole, embraces this issue as an American issue, we will continue to struggle," said De'Andre Salter, Lead Pastor at Impact Church in South Plainfield, NJ. In light of recent events, many are left with unanswered questions and an overall sense of hopelessness. The conversations that are taking place amongst colleagues and each other, although very thoughtprovoking, lack the power to create systematic change. The purpose of this forum is to move beyond the conversation in pursuit of action. Those in attendance will not only have an opportunity to vocalize their concerns, but will also walk away with practical solutions to assist in building relations between local law enforcement and the community. As such, we will be whiteboarding solutions to proactively help bridge the gap between city officials, law enforcement, and community members at large. End
