BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA — A discussion about the Justice System with Brevard County Sheriff Wayne Ivey is being hosted by the Greater Palm Bay Chamber of Commerce on Friday at 10 a.m. at the Wings of Grace Ministries, 444 Grove Lane in Melbourne.
Sheriff Ivey is scheduled to lead the conversation on Friday at 10 a.m., which will focus on how public safety, accountability, prevention efforts, and second chances can influence opportunities for individuals and families across the region.
The discussion will examine how partnerships between law enforcement, businesses, educators, nonprofit organizations, and community leaders can help strengthen support systems and improve outcomes for Brevard County residents.
