Please join us for the World Day of Remembrance for Victims of Traffic Violence on Saturday, November 14 at ThriveOn King, 11:30 a.m. – 3:30 p.m.

The World Day of Remembrance is an opportunity for the community to honor the lives lost and forever altered by traffic violence. Progress is happening to improve the safety of our streets, but any number of fatalities or life-injuries is unacceptable.

This event will allow families and friends who have been impacted by traffic violence to remember their loved ones, and to provide all event attendees with support and connection. Event program includes remembrances of those lost, remarks from impacted families, optional healing breakout activities, and relevant resources from community partners.

Traffic violence is a complex issue, and the solution requires community-wide participation. Come be a part of the solution, and help move Milwaukee towards Vision Zero!
