Healing in the Hood will have its annual Peace Walk through the city of Blytheville on Friday.
Participants will meet at Williams Park at 5:30 p.m. Friday.
"Our mission is to continue to raise awareness of the need to unite our community," Healing in the Hood's Bebe Gillespie said. "As we all know the need is great to urge our young people to stop the violence and think before reacting. We need each and every one of you to participate in this event. We pray pastors, politicians, educators and administrators will join the movement; you are greatly needed."
