Mike Epps, Marion County prosecutor to host roundtable on gun violence prevention with students

INDIANAPOLIS - Comedian Mike Epps and Marion County Prosecutor Ryan Mears are set to host a youth roundtable discussion on gun violence prevention in downtown Indianapolis on Tuesday.




The conversation will feature high school students from Indianapolis Public Schools, Warren Central High School, as well as an undisclosed area charter school.




The purpose of the discussion is, "to uplift and center youth voices in the urgent conversation about gun violence prevention," according to a press release from the Marion County Prosecutor's Office.

"This roundtable creates a platform for young people to share their experiences and ideas, empowering them to be heard and to help shape community solutions."




The discussion will be produced into a podcast to highlight the voices of young people, that the prosecutors offices believes are, "too often missing from conversations about violence prevention and public safety."
