LIMA, OH (WLIO) - The Lima Area Black Ministerial Alliance is once again holding a forum on gun violence and is asking the public to attend.
This is another in a series of forums that the Lima Area Black Ministerial Alliance has been holding to address the issue of gun violence in Lima and the area. The last meeting saw a cross-section of people in attendance, including city officials, law enforcement, and even school administrators, among others. They are hoping for a good turnout again.
"We expect the public to be there; we want them to be there. To address, again, they help us when they tell us what their concerns are, give us their ideas, we'll have questions where you can ask questions. You may be affected by gun violence; know someone who's been affected by gun violence. So, yes, they will help us a lot," stated pastor Cleven Jones, vice president of the Lima Area Black Ministerial Alliance.
The meeting is on April 25, 2024, at 6 p.m. at the Lima Public Library, located at 650 W Market Street, Lima, OH 45801. The community is encouraged to bring questions.
