As the United States marks 250 years since the signing of the Declaration of Independence, a new Scripps News Group special is looking at the people and stories that continue to shape the country.
"250: Celebrating America" is hosted by Alisyn Camerota from inside Independence Hall in Philadelphia, where both the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution were debated and adopted. The one-hour special takes viewers across the country for stories about service, community, resilience and hope.
The special also includes a partnership with the Scripps Howard Fund, which will donate a total of $75,000 to five organizations making a difference in their communities.
