As HopeWorks continues to grow and center our work around creating a world free from violence, we understand that society's racist structures have impacted our relationships with each other and the world. It is important to talk about the ways we engage with each other in terms of peace and intersectionality; and constantly be open to learn. This coming MLK day, HopeWorks' Youth Leaders strive to engage and continue these important conversations of non-violence, peace, and social justice that Martin Luther King, Jr. advocated for.

Young people ages 13 to 18 are invited to join HopeWorks’ Youth Leaders as teens engage in conversation around non-violence, peace, and social justice. Conversation will involve how these topics may or may not show up in teens' daily lives and how today's realities impact their visibility. We hope to learn and share with each other in a way that can provide the most relief.

How It Works

• After you register, you will receive a confirmation email containing the link to join the event on Zoom. We will also provide a phone number and password if you want to call-in instead.
• You are not required to create a Zoom account or install special software to attend. You can use any computer to join via the link, or call-in from any mobile or landline phone. (It's recommended that you have a reliable internet connection or cell phone service!)
• At the time of the event, just click the link or call-in!

Accessibility

Our goal is to make virtual events as accessible as possible, however we are still learning how to use Zoom ourselves. The chat box feature will be available during this event. Unfortunately, at this time, we do not have the option for closed captioning during live events. If you have any specific questions, concerns, or suggestions about access please contact Community Educator, Victoria Rain at vrain@wearehopeworks.org.
