Florida Matters Preview: School Violence Town Hall

This week on Florida Matters we'll hear highlights from a recent town hall on school violence. The Tampa Bay Association of Black Journalists hosted the event in Tampa's Seminole Heights in response to last month's school shooting in Parkland.

In this preview, we hear some members of the audience voice concerns about school safety to Hillsborough County Schools Superintendent Jeff Eakins, starting with local business owner Natasha Goodley.

I’m the editor for Your Florida, a project focused on connecting people with state government and policies passed in Tallahassee that affect their lives. I’m passionate about highlighting community efforts to improve the quality of life in our state and am committed to holding those in power accountable when they fail to prioritize the needs of people they serve.
