Mayor Eric Adams’ plan to reduce gun violence across New York City has now rolled out in daily phases as of Aug. 10 — tackling issues that lie at the root of gun violence: housing, employment, and mental health.
First Deputy Mayor Sheena Wright and CEO of Man Up! Inc. A.T. Mitchell, who Adams selected as co-chairs in June 2022, explained the action plan during a media roundtable on Thursday, sharing more details about the $485 million dollar gun violence prevention plan, and answering questions from community and ethnic media outlets.
