¿Por qué debería importarnos?
La capacidad de SCS para brindar una educación equitativa y de calidad se ve socavada por la alta rotación de docentes y las vacantes docentes de un año, así como por las importantes deficiencias de mantenimiento dentro de las escuelas, todo lo cual conduce a mayores costos financieros, educativos y de salud. La falta de acceso a servicios integrales proporcionados por trabajadores sociales, psicólogos y enfermeras calificados inhibe el tratamiento exitoso del trauma o las Experiencias Adversas en la Infancia (ACE). El abuso, la negligencia y el trauma aumentan significativamente la probabilidad de suspensiones, comportamiento delictivo juvenil y encarcelamiento. Con una mediana de edad cuatro años por debajo del promedio nacional, la población de Memphis puede apoyar el desarrollo económico, pero solo si brindamos a los niños de nuestra comunidad acceso a oportunidades y apoyo.

Acerca del evento
City Council Attorney Allan Wade, who the people did not elect, has been tasked to consolidate OUR police accountability ordinances into one. The result, titled the “Tyre Nichols Justice in Policing Ordinance,” does not include any of our demands, nor would it have kept Tyre Nichols alive. Tyre Nichols' family has come out with a statement against this consolidated ordinance, meaning that a "yes" vote is a vote against Tyre's family.
We are calling for EVERYONE to come out to the city council meeting, on April 11th, we must PACK THE ROOM at City Hall (125 N. Main St.) at 8:30am and 3pm. Please join us to urge the Council to Vote no on this ordinance.
