Opportunity for Girls: "In Solidarity Conversation" on July 23
Calling young leaders!
These are confusing and complicated times for everyone living through COVID-19, the resulting economic crisis, and the recent protests and uprisings in reaction to the murders of Breonna Taylor, Nina Pop, Tony McDade, and George Floyd and ongoing racism in the United States. While all of this has caused a tremendous shift and uncertainty for our nation as a whole, these crises uniquely and disproportionately impact communities of color, their families, and their communities across the country.
As our communities heal and repair from these recent events, National Crittenton and National Young Women’s Initiative (National YWI) wanted to offer a space that centers the leadership, voices, experiences and advocacy of cis and trans girls, young women, and gender-expansive people of color.
As a result, In Solidarity Conversations will be occurring in regions across the country from June through August 2020. During these conversations cis and trans girls, young women, and gender-expansive people of color will be in community to share their experiences, needs and solutions during these unprecedented times.
