INDIANAPOLIS Young people at the Boys and Girls Club of Indianapolis engaged with community leaders Tuesday night in conversations about improving the community.
WRTV's Amber Grigley attended the town hall where club members sat down with local officials to discuss real issues affecting their lives.
"Because of the deep talks," said Joshua Jefferson, a 6th grader. "Talks about safety and the poor and the wealthy."
Marion County Prosecutor Ryan Mears said the conversations revealed the serious challenges young people face daily.
"I think the thing that you kind of take away from these conversations is that although these kids might be 12,13,14 years old. They're dealing with real-life issues and they're dealing with real-life problems at a very young age," Mears said.
