The exclusive story of a town that is trying to save boys from prison.
the story
In Omaha Nebraska, Father Flanagan created a town for children who would otherwise end up in prison. It became known as Boys Town. With unprecedented access, Blue Baby goes into one of the homes at Boys Town, and follows eight boys through their highest highs and lowest lows. Helping these boys isn’t always pretty or straightforward. The children come from intensely complicated backgrounds. But what they experience at Boys Town may change their lives—and yours. Join Boys Town in fighting to save America’s youth from poverty and prison. Start by watching Blue Baby.
