BALTIMORE — Brooklyn Homes hosted a resource fair Saturday in response to community feedback following July's deadly mass shooting.
Residents were offered mental health counseling, fresh produce, clothes, and free employment assistance.
"This resource fair is part of the post-45-day stabilization. So, we do an initial 45 days where we're on the ground every day. This part of the 45-day stabilization resource fair is community-engaged, so the community drives this, all the vendors here, the volunteers here. This was a lot of their ideas, a lot of resources that they requested," Rick Fontaine Leandry said, who is the MONSE Coordinated Neighborhood Stabilization Response Manager.
Resources were also based on 311 and 911 data.
On Thursday, a community meeting was held to address improvements in police response and how city leaders can meet the needs of the community.
