#81: When Reaching Age 18 is a “Blessing”: Youth & Gun Violence
Send us a text This week’s episode features a candid and poignant discussion about youth gun violence in our area. We sat down with two young men from the United Way-supported 4-C Coalition and Seattle Cares mentoring movement, as well as the director of Seattle Cares, to discuss an issue affecting far too many of our young people and their families. We’ll also discuss our Free Summer Meals program for school-age children and a local volunteer opportunity. Thanks for tuning in.
