A Time to Heal Author Talk with Economics Writer John Schmid

June 15, 2017 @ 4:30 pm - 7:30 pm

Free

For more than a year, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel economics reporter John Schmid dug into some of Milwaukee’s most pressing social issues, including poverty, crime and unemployment. He did so through the lens of generational trauma.

The result of his groundbreaking research is a five-part series, “A Time to Heal,” which appeared on JSOnline. The depth and breadth of this story has left many of us wondering how to turn the tide.

Please join us for an author talk by John Schmid followed by a panel discussion. Local experts include:

Dr. Dimitri Topitzes, Institute for Child and Family Well-Being
Jermaine Reed, Fresh Start Family Services, WNOV Radio
Mary Triggiano, Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge
Tim Grove, Chief Clinical Officer at SaintA
