Heard It From A Youth Worker:  


"People often approach me to ask how they can help the city, and I always
suggest that they mentor a child. One of the greatest things an adult can do to
improve education, reduce crime and contribute to building a better city is
 help a young person in need and show them you care."

- Indianapolis Mayor, Greg Ballard

The Abolitionists Film Screening 

Thursday, June 26 at 6:00 PM
Indianapolis Neighborhood Resource Center
1802 N. Illinois St. Indianapolis, IN  

 

Through little-known filmed interviews and photographs shot for Life magazine, this documentary brings to life the heart-rending love story of a multicultural couple, Richard and Mildred Loving, and the legal battle they fought in the late 1950's to remain a couple. There will be a facilitated discussion following the screening.  

This workshop is free to attend, but registration is required because limited space is available.   

To reserve your spot, contact Danicia Malone at 317.920.0330317.920.0330 ext. 109 or email dmalone@inrc.org.
