🎙️ This Morning on WIZS Radio: Pathways 2 Peace in Action! 🎙️

Earlier today, P2P founder Charles Turrentine Jr. was joined by Dispatch editor Gary Band and local business leaders Tasha Fritz and Roy Brown Jr. for a powerful conversation on WIZS, recapping the recent Data-to-Action Workshop held at Vance-Granville Community College.

The mission was clear: We have the data – now what do we do with it?

Over two days, community members came together to share stories, analyze data, and identify the root causes of violence in our area:
🔹 Poverty
🔹 Broken homes
🔹 Absenteeism

💬 “The time to act is now,” Charles said, as he laid out P2P’s next steps — from mentorship and peer support to resource hubs and community events like our June 25 Community Read-In with Perry Memorial Library.

Highlights from this morning’s show:
✨ Tasha Fritz spoke on the power of believing in ourselves and each other.
✨ Roy Brown Jr. shared how peer support and early intervention can change lives.
✨ Gary Band reminded us it’s not always about more programs — it’s about stronger connections.

We’re not just talking about change — we’re building it.

✅ A Look Back: Pathways to Peace Systems Mapping Workshop
A couple weeks ago, we gathered at Vance-Granville Community College for a powerful Data-to-Action workshop hosted by Pathways to Peace.

Community leaders, service providers, and residents came together to dig deep into the systems that impact our lives every day — from housing and healthcare to education and mental health. Through causal loop mapping, we identified patterns, root causes, and opportunities to make real change.

This was more than a meeting — it was the beginning of a movement to build a more connected, resilient, and peaceful community.

Thank you to everyone who showed up and contributed. The work continues, and we’re just getting started. 💪🏽
