Our Process
• On May 24, 2012, approximately 40 community leaders and concerned citizens came together as part of the City of McKeesport’s Mayors’ Select Committee on Crime and Violence. This committee was selected to be a part of what was dubbed “Planning the transformation of our City” as working together for a better McKeesport. Those in attendance represented the local government, school district, faith-based groups, law enforcement, youth organizations, businesses, social service agencies, universities, libraries, community organizations, and parents.
