Letters: Philadelphia needs more youth programs in the summer

DURING the summer, it seems like many crimes are committed by the city's youth. The city should add more summer jobs, programs and activities for the young. Too much leisure time can equal a higher crime rate. Athletics, youth clubs, educational events, etc., should be expanded.
