Bringing America Together and The Gang Prevention Forum.
Bringing America Together played a supporting role in bringing about the May 21st Gang Prevention Forum at the Bucks County Intermediate Unit, where there were approximately 160 attendees from communities in Bucks County, including social workers, teachers and members of law enforcement.
Ron "Cook" Barrett, gang prevention specialist from the Albany, NY Police Department, was the key note speaker. Bensalem Township Public Safety Director Fred Harran served as moderator of the panel discussion; and from Bristol Township's Ben Franklin Middle School, the "Drummers With Attitude" gave an awesome performance with their painted drumsticks and buckets!
