On Saturday, May 25, “Mother’s Opposed to Violence Everywhere” (MOVE) will partner with the Kenwood-Oakland Community Organization (KOCO) to hold a citywide conference to address the issue of missing women and girls in the Chicago area.

“We want to offer safety precautions that we think will help in aiding our young ladies, whether it’s self-defense or with little gadgets like flashlights and noisemakers,” said Tanisha Williams, a youth organizer with KOCO.

The conference is a follow-up to the “We Walk For Her” march organized last year by a 13-year-old who said she was afraid to walk out of her home to go to a school one block away.
