City reminders urge parents to partner on Indiana summer curfew for minors
Summary
City messaging revived Indiana's state curfew for minors during summer hours (June 15–Aug 31): weekdays 11 p.m.–5 a.m., weekends starting at midnight; students lawfully employed must carry proof of employment, officials said.
As school lets out for summer, city messaging urged families to follow Indiana’s state curfew for minors and to partner with authorities to keep youth safe.
A city presenter said, "That's why we're reminding families and young people about Indiana's state curfew law," and summarized the summer schedule the city is emphasizing: from June 15 through Aug. 31, weekday curfew hours are 11 p.m. to 5 a.m.; on Fridays and Saturdays the curfew begins at midnight. The message said the curfew applies to minors 17 years and under.
Superintendent Stokes was invoked in the recorded message in support of the safety effort; the recording also reminded lawfully employed minors to carry proof of employment, such as a badge, permit or other ID, while working during curfew hours.
The recorded segment framed the curfew reminder as a partnership request to parents and guardians and did not describe enforcement actions or penalties. Residents seeking specifics on enforcement or exceptions were directed to state resources referenced in the message.
