Your last paragraph reminds me a lot of where I live in southeastern Ohio, especially that last sentence. It sounds like you all are doing great work. This was inspiring and motivating to read, thank you!
It was honestly humbling to be in that room. Here's all these different people with these different organizations with huge amounts of experience and training, then there's me, some guy. At the end the host asked if there was anything anybody wanted to add and one of the ladies from an org just says, "People are dying." with a flat tone. That hit everyone pretty hard I think. The mood was already somewhat somber before that. The kid who was killed had actually been attending the financial literacy class. Many of the people in that room knew him because they work at the highschool that he went to.
