The city of Aurora is offering a free and safe way for teens to spend summer break. It's all part of the "We Are Aurora Youth" program which includes free admission and activities at three city rec centers. Also on this week's show, Aurora Fire Rescue hosts a community open house to unveil plans for the rebuilding of Fire Station 9; The Aurora Highlands pays tribute to trailblazing local Black doctor Justina Ford; and the star of "Lindita's Kitchen" on AuroraTV joins us in studio to create a festive and unforgettable culinary delight. Those stories and much more this week on Aurora Now.
