Bronx Public Safety Forum Tonight at Monroe College

The leaders at Community Board 7 want to invite anyone in the Bronx to talk about public safety and quality of life issues at a forum tonight at Monroe College’s King Hall Gym, 2501 Jerome Ave., from 6 to 9 p.m.

Walter Bell and Community Board 7 Chairman Paul Foster say they hope the forum allows people to speak up about their concerns, whether it’s violence, prostitution, litter or any other issue they feel is affecting their lives. For more information, call CB7 at (718) 933-5650.

Welcome to the Norwood News, a bi-weekly community newspaper that primarily serves the northwest Bronx communities of Norwood, Bedford Park, Fordham and University Heights. Through our Breaking Bronx blog, we focus on news and information for those neighborhoods, but aim to cover as much Bronx-related news as possible. Founded in 1988 by Mosholu Preservation Corporation, a not-for-profit affiliate of Montefiore Medical Center, the Norwood News began as a monthly and grew to a bi-weekly in 1994. In September 2003 the paper expanded to cover University Heights and now covers all the neighborhoods of Community District 7. The Norwood News exists to foster communication among citizens and organizations and to be a tool for neighborhood development efforts. The Norwood News runs the Bronx Youth Journalism Heard, a journalism training program for Bronx high school students.
