Crime is on our minds…In the fall issue of THE NEXT AMERICAN CITY MAGAZINE, we took a close look at crime and the perception of crime in cities. Now we want you to be a part of that discussion. Please join THE NEXT AMERICAN CITY as we host a two-hour symposium on crime that will bring together politicians, academics, police and community representatives to discuss how we can work together to address crime and its causes in Philadelphia and in cities across the country that are struggling with similar challenges.

For more information, please contact Pooja Shah at events@americancity.org or call 215-546-4128 ×3.
