After a busy and violent weekend in the Capital City that stretched into Monday, May 22, a Baton Rouge non-profit is hoping its work and outreach can make a difference. Community groups and leaders are coming together to discuss efforts to deter the violence. “It is just a happenstance that tonight is a meeting after the horrific weekend,” said Michael Adams, president of 100 Black Men of Metro Baton Rouge. The group, along with its community partners, is discussing neighborhood outreach and communication efforts that are aimed at preventing gun violence. Leaders will also share their findings from a door-to-door canvass they conducted in different high-crime areas.
