Welcome to Inside Policy Talks, where we discuss the ideas and policies shaping Canada today!
Peter Copeland, Deputy Director of Domestic Policy at MLI is joined by Marcell Wilson, founder and head of the One by One Movement, a groundbreaking organization dedicated to preventing violence and helping people transition out of gang life.
Marcell brings a wealth of personal experience and insight into the intersection of crime prevention, policing, corrections, and community rehabilitation.
Together they discuss the origins of the One by One Movement and explore key issues in crime prevention, policing, and corrections, as well as the ineffective spending, and the prevalence of activism over results.
Finally, they also discuss the importance of strong social support systems, the critical role of mentoring, stable families, and the presence of positive role models and father figures in building healthy, resilient communities.
