So grateful to be at the 2025 National Cities United Conference in Louisville KY with our Fort Wayne UNITED team. Hearing from Mayor Craig Greenberg was a great reminder that ALL can be impacted by gun violence. We are committed to contributing to this needed work.

I was in Fort Wayne a few days ago, reflecting on the legacy of former Mayor Tom Henry. He will be remembered for his unwavering support for young black males ages 10 to 24 through Fort Wayne United, even in the face of opposition within his own administration. @FWUNITED

@FWUNITED Ten Point Coalition is one of the best violence reduction initiatives addressing urban youth in the country.

.@FWUNITED began a new session of its discussion-based program that connects local professionals with young men. This year's session has 54 mentors and 54 students from Wayne and New Haven Junior-Senior high schools. I was there for @JGfortwayne: tinyurl.com/3kssnb97
