Thanks to the Young Women's Project Young Womens Project for coming out to our Workforce Friday to talk about training young people to be advocates and peer educators. Some of our scholars were inspired to apply for jobs as health educators on the spot!

Had a great start to the school year! Our youth are starting their second month back with Rachel, our new PHASE crew memeber!

Our Advanced Team members are working together to identify issues within their communities. We closed out the night by designing our own motivational board. #peerhealtheducator #ywp #teenhealth #dcps

Many thanks to our rockstar peer educators who helped with recruitment at @Wilsonhsdcps today ☺️✨

Earlier today, we passed Vote16DC unanimously out of committee. It will allow 16 & 17 year olds the right to vote in DC. Why does that matter? Because 10,400 young people can pay taxes, make healthcare decisions, drive on our streets, & more, but have no voice at the ballot box.

During the last week of #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth, we highlighted youth mental health. Our newsletter focused on the work of two great orgs we’ve partnered with in DC, @blackswanacad and Young Womens Project. To learn more, take a look at our newsletter: conta.cc/3LPzVP9

That's a wrap - thank you YJC teams for another lovely year of youth advocacy work! We are so proud of all the work you've done - and we plan to highlight it! For now, here's a quick list of our youths' accomplishments this year 🙌🏽✨📝 #YouthEmpowerment

Congrats to the amazing folks at YWP!
