Transforming Pain into Power!

Our 4 Pillars of

Impact 

Healing Justice

A framework that identifies how youth can holistically respond to and intervene on generational trauma and violence and to bring collective practices that can impact and transform the consequences of oppression on our bodies, hearts and minds.  

Community Transformation

Engaging in a deep level of collaboration to seed transformational thinking and action. Using community transformation that focuses on the intersectionality of culture, race, gender and class and create a space where healing is experienced collectively. 

Youth-Led Organizing

A burgeoning movement that empowers young people while simultaneously enabling them to make substantive contributions to their communities. Using organizing strategies to alter power relations and to identify, advocate for and instigate change on critical issues that are having an impact on our communities and broader society

Liberation & Access

Educate, engage and empower Detroit youth to Liberation for racial, social & economic justice. Our distinct goal is to build access for our peers: Access to healing, Access to literacy, Access to liberation and Access to new possibilities.

This is Our Why
