Lead by the Churches of NorthEast LA, the NorthEast LA community will meet to march against violence in the streets. The march is down York Blvd to Eagle Rock Blvd and then down Eagle Rock Blvd to the Resource Fair. Snacks will be served at both the staging area and the Resource Fair. Bottled water will also be available for marchers. Along with the Resource Fair there will be live and DJ music and a Mini Car Show.

Community groups, families and local organizations and businesses and others are encouraged to join the march and bring organizational / identificational banners or signs. March signs will also be provided. This march and resource fair is being held in response to the violence in the streets of NorthEast LA, the crimes against the person, such as shootings / drive-bys / robberies / assaults / rapes / batteries. Summer is the time when these crimes escalate and so we are taking to the streets to march and declare:

Peace in the NorthEast: Stop the Violence.

At a recent Churches of NorthEast LA Monthly Breakfast Gathering Chief Murphy challenged the churches to become involved in helping to reduce crime in the streets of the NorthEast LA area. In immediate response the churches and other religiously-based community organizations represented at the meeting said let’s do a peace march and so was born the Peace in the NorthEast Community March, which we believe will become an annual march.
