Family Week is an annual celebration that focuses on family unity while promoting the importance of crime prevention, job re-engagement (i.e., St. Louis Metropolitan Amnesty Project) and neighborhood stabilization. This week-long summer celebration includes family-friendly recreational and educational events and activities held throughout the St. Louis region.
The ongoing “Peace in the Streets” campaign aims to reshape the attitudes and behaviors of area residents to be empowered advocates who reclaim their communities while tackling unwanted criminal activity.
Family Week’s staple activities include:
- Kick-Off Reception at City Hall--the official launch event. Activities and entertainment are announced. Community leaders and elected officials are saluted for their tireless contributions to the community. ... continue reading>>http://www.betterfamilylife.org/index.php/family-week
