Between the morning and evening workshops we had 54 people attend. Folks met at the Marshall J. Gardner Center of the Arts 540 S. Lake St. Gary, Indiana 46403.
If you were unable to attend the workshops, you can watch the video (YouTube required it to be split into 4 short videos) of it here and access the PowerPoint here. If you would like to join an Action Group email our Community Builder, Jessie Renslow, via millerspotlight@gmail.com.

Our Action Groups will explore the viability of the opinions expressed in the interview process. Community members can join Action Groups. They will meet 3-6 times this summer to create plans that will address these themes and be implemented in 2016. They will also write early action grants to help further the revitalization efforts in our community.
