Keith Oglesby, the co-president of Interfaith Coalition for Action, Reconciliation & Empowerment or ICARE, says that the violence in the city is something they’re working to combat because it’s sad that the residents must deal with this.

It’s no secret Jacksonville is dealing with a crime problem. Nearly everyday, we are waking up to news of a shooting, road rage or some other type of violent crime in our communities. Lawmakers and community leaders are working together to try and figure out how to make our city safer.
