This peace walk seeks to create a bridge between long-standing residents, whose roots in Peoplestown span decades, and newer community members who are now part of its evolving story. “A Path to Peace” will be a space for healing, honoring the neighborhood's legacy, and affirming a shared commitment to a unified, inclusive future.
