Taking place at the NLEN workforce campus located at 1111 South Homan Avenue, the event will bring the community together for a day of summer fun and career opportunities. 

The “Peace In The Streets” series welcomes neighbors for a day of family-friendly games, free food from local trucks, entertainment, music, community resources, giveaways, and more! Created in 2017, “Peace In The Streets” was established to inspire peace in underserved communities throughout Chicago and show neighbors that they have the support of their local broadcast stations. Local organizations and businesses will be sharing a wealth of resources and information on upcoming programming as well as providing activities and services including a book giveaway, mental wellness art activities, health awareness, job resources, and more.
