"We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly." ~ MLK

Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr's principles of justice, equality, and social responsibility was not just a vision for his time, but a call to action for future generations. Our Fall 2023 BRAVE Young Leaders have been learning more and co-laboring digital campaigns and a community social project about climate change, environmental justice, and it's impact on our (mental) health, particularly to the vulnerable populations. 

Join us for this meaningful youth-led community event as we gather to honor the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Let's come together in celebration and reflection, empowering the voices of our young leaders as they inspire positive change through fun, creative, and interactive therapeutic activities with intentional reflections on environmental and racial justice.
