Daily News | Philly teens say safety concerns hinder city rec centers
within 400 feet of city rec centers since 2020, The Inquirer previously reported — including the fatal shooting of Tiffany Fletcher, 41, while working at Mill Creek rec in September.
They mentioned dance and yoga classes, properly funded sports leagues, and programs offering music, art, and chess. The daylong brainstorming and networking session was led by Creative Praxis, a Philadelphia-based training organization that has previously run “day of freedom” events for area schools, and worked with youth in Kensington to develop a community safety plan for the neighborhood.
Rec leaders from around the city said they’ve already been finding ways to bring kids in. Curtis “C.J.” Johnson, who works at the Tustin Recreation Center, mentioned the esports lounge that opened about two months ago, with 10 computers and gaming chairs that are full most evenings. It’s one of two installed in city rec centers this year.
