The Elkhart County Juvenile Magistrate says they are indefinitely postponing the Summit on Children that was scheduled for March 27.

The office says the decision was made in an attempt to do their part to minimize the spread of the COVID-19 virus.

The Magistrate says it would be “irresponsible” to hold the event at this time, as it would risk putting nearly 500 people at increased risk. She says the event will be rescheduled.
