Community advocates are calling on the Fresno City Council to allocate $300,000 for a program geared toward reducing gun violence — an effort they believe will save lives and taxpayer money.
Those who’ve lost loved ones to gun violence like Aaron Foster, a community organizer with Faith in the Valley-Fresno, say the time for trying solutions is now.
“I don’t think we can afford to wait another year because somebody’s going to get killed. We know that for sure,” he said.
