Article: University of the District of Columbia Launches Violence Prevention & Community Wellness Initiative
Posted by University of the District of Columbia on July 19, 2022
The launch of the new initiative and certificate program created in response to the rise of violence in the District. “The whole community will benefit from the training and expertise that participants will gain. This is another example of how the University can help to address emerging and critical needs of the District region. Violence knows no zip code, race, gender, religion, or other possible shield. One way is to provide those on the front-lines with the knowledge and skills to help prevent eruptions and better serve those communities most at risk. We are very proud to step into that effort,” said Chief Academic Officer Lawrence T. Potter, Jr.
