"Everyone has a role to play in keeping our communities safe, and it is clear that our collective work will not be finished until the number of victims injured and families mourning the loss of a loved one as a result of senseless violence is zero. We will continue our efforts in providing meaningful summer programming opportunities for our young people to keep them engaged through the summer months, and will also continue working with victims of violence and those who feel like they are being targeted to make sure they have resources and support available to them. Our City is one of resilience and strength, and one that values human life, which is why I am asking for us all to join together to commit to doing all we can to keep Boston and our residents safe."
