¿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
MICAH’s 7th Annual Public Meeting is Sunday, September 14 from 4-6pm, at Christ Missionary Baptist Church!
This once-a-year meeting is an opportunity to hold public officials accountable for issues important to Memphis like housing, transportation, and the criminal justice system. Our task forces will dive deep into key issues that affect our community while highlighting solutions and making demands that can restore it. Our leaders are working to make this action a powerful one, and our community’s voice is critical to show our city and county officials that we care about our community.
As MICAH continues to build excitement around our 7th Annual Public Meeting on Sunday, September 14, 4-6pm, we are also relying on your support to spread the word. The Annual Public Meeting belongs to all of us at MICAH, and we can only be successful when each of us does our part!
