A newly formed coalition comprised of local government, education, law enforcement and judicial organizations, among others, have come together to hopefully combat the growing youth violence epidemic that is plaguing children and families across Miami-Dade County.
Together for Children — including members of Miami-Dade County Public Schools, Public Defenders and State Attorney’s Offices, Florida Departments of Children and Families and Juvenile Justice and other
community-based organizations such as The Children's Trust, The Miami Foundation and United Way of Miami-Dade — will hold a series of community planning meetings with residents of high-profile neighborhoods prone to recurrent gun violence and homicides.
