About Us

History

In July 2022, several retired psychologists, doctors, attorneys, law enforcement officers and businesspersons, formed a Mastermind group to research the cause of violence and mass shootings, especially violence in our schools. After extensive research, it was discovered that in-depth studies had already identified the proven “root causes”, yet few were aware. So, on January 31, 2023, the Safe Cities Network, Inc. (SCN) was formed to create awareness and educational programs to eliminate violence and make our community safer.
