Thanks for the shout out Gabe Davis! Appreciate you! And you’re right - many folks don’t realize that they can reregister and VOTE after time-served for a felony conviction! And a misdemeanor doesn’t have to stop you at all! Folks in jail are often fully eligible to vote! Gotta ask - or find us on Saturdays! .

June came and went - but every month, every day needs to be gun violence prevention day! See below.

June is Gun Violence Prevention Month. In Cincinnati, homicides, predominantly by guns, are the third leading cause of excess years of life lost for Cincinnati residents.
In the paragraph below, the Cincinnati Health Department states that Cincinnati’s life expectancy is almost 4 years lower than the national average.
Further, there is a 25 year difference between different neighborhoods here in Cincinnati - so the average misses the depth of the disparities. This enormous neighborhood disparity is 14th worst in the country.
Drug overdoses, infant mortality and homicides, as well as adult chronic health problems like heart, disease, cancer, and diabetes, known to be exacerbated by the toxic stress that go with high levels of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) hurt the people, especially the Black people, of Cincinnati. We can do better.
Join the conversation Monday at 6 pm at the Urban League.
