'Bridging the Gap' rally planned in Greensburg
A central Westmoreland County citizens activist group will host a “Bridging the Gap” event from 4 to 7 p.m. Friday at the Greensburg YWCA, 424 N. Main St.
There will be food, entertainment and tables with information about community services.
Representatives from about 15 organizations, including the Blackburn Center, Sage’s Army, the American Red Cross, Westmoreland County Behavioral Health and Westmoreland Community Action, are scheduled to participate, said Ronel Baccus of Greensburg, organizer of Unity in the Community, the event’s sponsor.
“We must come together to bring unity and not division, to have dialogue with the community and honor Black leaders in the community,” Baccus said.
