With school letting out soon many parents are worried about what they're going to do with their kids and how they're going to keep them out of trouble. 23 News Reporter Natalie Kaplan is here to tell us about a free program that's here to help.

All summer long tunes are going to be coming from Brown's Temple Church in Rockford. Thanks to an $18,000 grant from the state they're starting a free music program for at risk youth in our area.

Program director's tell me it's a chance for them to get troubled youth off the streets and into a better environment where hopefully they can start hitting more positive notes.

The programs geared to youth ages 12 to 24 but they're willing to let anyone in that's willing to join the harmony and there won't just be signing directors have big plans for this program like dance classes, a chorus, open mic time for poetry, even a drum line. all they need now is students to sign up.

If you're interested in having your child join, sign up is tomorrow Friday June 6Th at the church at 2806 West state street. Doors are open from 6-7:30pm.

If you can't make it to the event call Florence at 815-505-2188 for more information.

If you would like to make a donation to the program call Gary at 779-537-0805, they are in need of instruments as well.
