Today: Legacy Foundation community development director Donna Catalano and her colleague vice-president Kelly Anoe are on "Regionally Speaking" to talk about projects that include the summertime farmers' markets in Lake County and a recent series of grants going out to community organizations from the Foundation.  Lakeshore Public Radio's Sharon Jackson talks with Carrie Higgins with the Porter County Tobacco Education and Prevention Coalition about the proposed "smoke-free ordinance" in Portage that is under review by the City Council. And Rebecca Edwards with "SafeWise" discusses the concerns that Hoosiers have over gun violence, as addressed in its latest "State of Safety in America's" Indiana statistics.
