Youth²– Youth Helping Youth MLK, Jr. Day Community Service Workshop

“Making the Invisible Visible: Exploring Poverty, Racism, and Discrimination”

Monday, January 20^th, 9:30-12 noon. Susman Room, Saratoga Springs Public Library.

Our goal is to increase social awareness, sensitivity and education about poverty, racism, and discrimination in our own community. Jean Fei, a long time community advocate for diversity and sharing resources, will facilitate “Making the Invisible Visible”, an interactive three-part workshop. All who attend are invited to participate in each stage: first, drawing and describing poverty, next, the ten chairs of wealth and last, the web of power. We will brainstorm solutions to the issues we have learned about, and provide resources for youth to create social change for a brighter future! Families, Adults, Teens, and Children (9+), who have a willingness to participate in an interactive, educational and gentle program are welcomed.

YESS — Youth Empowerment and Sustainability Summit. Youth² will be attending! February 6-8, 2020 at the Ashokan Center. More info here.
