Episode Details

Virginia Beach is rallying young people to voice their thoughts at urgent safety listening sessions this week, as a newly formed task force seeks real, youth-driven solutions to curb violence—especially near the Oceanfront. Made up of city leaders, law enforcement, educators, and business owners, the group aims to build trust and implement effective strategies by hearing directly from the community’s youngest members. They’re exploring mentorship, better police tools, and stronger community support systems, with sessions already held for civil rights, faith, and business groups—and now, it’s the youth’s turn. The task force has until November to deliver actionable recommendations to City Council, making these voices central to shaping a safer future.
