These forums are designed to bring the community together for honest conversations on important topics, and the next Can I Talk to You Cville is focusing on how Charlottesville City Schools is working with the Charlottesville Police Department to bring officers back into the schools.
The event is cosponsored by the Black Professional Network, Charlottesville Inclusive Media Project, Vinegar Hill Magazine and the In My Humble Opinion (IMHO) radio show. IMHO host Charles Lewis will moderate.
In March 2025, the Charlottesville City School Board voted to restore School Resource Officers to the city’s public schools beginning in August 2026. Since the removal of SROs from the division’s safety model in 2020, there have been many successes, but there have also been challenges.
Tuesday, August 26, 5 to 7 p.m.
