MILWAUKEE, Aug. 28 -- The Milwaukee Common Council issued the following news release:

Alderman Ashanti Hamilton, President of the Common Council, will be speaking at a life insurance awareness event put on by Mother's Against Gun Violence (MAGV) and Bara Legacies on September 1, from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. at Milwaukee City Hall.

AMRI Counseling Services is offering post-traumatic stress counseling services to the public. Mothers Against Gun Violence and Bara Legacies are giving away no-cost, $5,000 Accidental Death Certificates to all adults.
