Friday will be the last day for Youth Commission Executive Director Jamira Burley, who is leaving the City of Philadelphia’s employ to be Amnesty International USA’s Gun Violence and Human Rights Senior Campaigner.
Nutter’s office announced Burley’s departure in a press release last Tuesday. The same day Ms. Burley posted a statement to her tumblr titled “To Philly with Love” explaining her reasons for leaving the Commission to work on Amnesty’s new campaign against gun violence.
