I brought Louisville Ky all the way to New Hampshire shout out to @hope_dealer54 for letting me show that I’m a Hope Dealer✊🏾Four shootings. 48 hours. Three lives gone one of them 14 years old. Louisville, the data says we’re making progress AND we’re still burying our babies. Both are true. Thank you @UNH for the Violence Prevention Research Conference the evidence exists. Let’s listen to it. 🕊️ #Louisville #Alliance502 #ViolencePrevention #GunViolencePrevention #502 CommunityViolenceIntervention ResearchMatters Louisville502 by @forrest_claysuggs

Hello Family,

In 2019, the mayor of Louisville, KY declared June 26th as TRINIDAD JACKSON DAY, a proclamation aligned with the national BMe Genius initiative! Every year, Dr.Jackson chooses an organization, cause, or person to support. This year, I am delighted to stand with him in supporting Shameka Parrish-Wright because we truly appreciate her living in her purpose and giving our community something REAL to support.

We are asking each of you to join us in helping raise $1,000 for the Councilwoman’s campaign. Please share the graphics and donation link across your social media, send it in text messages, and email it to your network today and keep giving it a few bumps over the next week.

Give what you can, and encourage others to do the same. Every share, every donation, and every show of support makes a difference.

Donate Here:

Thank you all! 💯✊🏾 by @forrest_claysuggs

Today I was asked to support a friend and colleague on his day. So as I look at how i support him I’m going to show up in a different way. This year, I’m showing up for Shameka Parrish-Wright on his behalf someone who’s truly living in her purpose and giving us something REAL to stand behind.
So here’s my ask: join me in raising $1K for the Councilwoman’s campaign. Share the graphics, share the link, push it out through your social media, your group texts, your emails today, and keep the bumps coming over the next week. Give what you can, and bring somebody with you.
Let’s move. THANK YOU! 💯✊🏾Dr. Trinidad Jackson, MPH, MS, FNAP Shameka Parrish-Wright

Please come and learn about what to watch for in the people you serve, and help educate the community on how to be resilient. Topics will include:
• Definition of Child Trafficking (Federal Definition/CSEC)
• Statistics of the Problem (nationwide + local)
• Modern Methods of Traffickings (+ online enticement)
• Risk factors and warning signs
• How to respond
• Screening tools and techniques
• Case Studies
See you on Wednesday, 4/22 from 3-4:30pm via zoom (https://zoom.us/j/9847872987). by @forrest_claysuggs
