Baltimore City’s Vigil of Remembrance- honoring lives lost to violence, suicide, overdose, and fatal fires in 2025 through a collective embrace of compassion and solidarity. #remembrance #CollectiveWorkAndResponsibility

Happy birthday, Dad. Your faith in humanity, your insistence on love over hate, and your belief that everyone can serve continue to renew me. In the darkest of times, your legacy is a light. When I feel hopeless, your spirit carries me. You will forever be in my heart.

On Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday, YRI honors a legacy rooted in courage—the courage to confront violence in our streets, our systems, and in our silence. We extend our prayers to the family of the victim of yesterday’s shooting in our beloved Cherry Hill community.

Congratulations Del. Robbyn Lewis!
