Coming together to try to put an end to youth violence in Aurora. From a prayer gathering to a new gun buyback program, community groups, city leaders, police and many others are teaming up to find solutions. Plus, we’ll hear from someone who’s living in one of Aurora’s new pallet shelters and see how it’s giving him a fresh start; a popular piece of public art in Aurora gets a magical makeover and a look back at the festive fun at the Holiday Hometown Parade at Southlands. Those stories and so much more this week on Aurora Now.
