Former Indianapolis Colts cornerback Marlin Jackson is hoping to play a role in curbing violence among our youth.

Jackson knows the impact a traumatic upbringing can have on a child’s life.

He never knew his dad and mom were addicted to drugs. He moved from home to home.

Jackson says he had to fight for the life he wanted. Now he wants to teach the next generation to do the same.

“Good decisions lead to good things happening,” Jackson said.

It’s all part of his nonprofit, ‘Fight for Life Foundation,’ that helps kids understand the importance of decision-making.

50 students from a variety of schools in Indianapolis got to partake in a field trip to the Indianapolis Children’s Museum.
