 Back to Apache home page 

Criminal Justice Association members will participate in a Take Back the Night program in Peru on May 4.

The event will begin with a 6 p.m. presentation at the Maude Powell statue in downtown Peru by Judge William Banich, followed by a Take Back the Night March. The march will end at the 28th Street park in Peru, with speakers scheduled there at 7 p.m.

Take Back the Night demonstrations, which have been conducted across the country, are designed to alert communities to the problems of violence against women and children. The CJA is coordinating the event with other LaSalle County organizations.

CJA members will also have an information booth from 9 a.m. to noon May 1 - 4 in the IVCC lobby.
