Lafayette Square Neighborhood Association Presentation

CRCSTL joined the Lafayette Square Neighborhood Association on November 8, 2023 to present our services to the community. We love to partner with an array of local and neighborhood groups and appreciate the important work these organizations do creating a network of community throughout St. Louis.

Multi-Ethnic Chamber Mixer

CRCSTL attended the Multi-Ethnic Chamber Mixer hosted by the International Institute on November 4, 2023. This event was a chance for diverse chamber members to come together celebrate their diverse cultures, businesses and nonprofits, and plan future collaborations for the Greater St. Louis metro area.

🌞 Dutchtown Summer Vibes Street Festival

On June 3, 2023, the Dutchtown Main Streets, in conjunction with other community sponsors, presented the third annual festival in Downtown Dutchtown. The event featured entertainment from local musicians, food and shopping from neighborhood businesses, and booths with community resources. CRCSTL was delighted to be out in the community as one of those resource booths. We love any chance to get out in the community to talk with neighbors about the free services we offer and the benefits of conflict resolution. CRCSTL - Where Conflicts Find Solutions.

Kicking It For a Cause 🎶🎤 CWE

CRCSTL was glad to join in for this local neighborhood event. Da Hood Talks Podcast hosts this event, Kickin' It For A Cause, as a judgement-free zone for the STL community to come together to discuss and plan how to take collective action to improve the black community. These free community events are also a place to have fun and build connections with music, games, free food, and prizes.

OVP Kickback ☀️ Baden's Hickey Park

The St. Louis Office of Violence Prevention (OVP), a division of the St. Louis Department of Public Safety, is working in partnership with the National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives (NOBLE) and Be SMART, an Everytown for Gun Safety Support Fund program, to continue gun violence prevention efforts in St. Louis and spread the critical message to community members about secure firearm storage. This was a free neighborhood event, providing residents a place to gather for food, music and entertainment. Future events will be hosted in new locations on the third Saturday of every month.

On May 20, the second OVP Kickback was hosted in Hickey Park in Baden and CRCSTL was again excited to attend, interact with the community and spread the word about our services around conflict resolution and promote de-escalation in hopes of preventing violence was escalating.
