We asked our teen participants at Los Padrinos Juvenile Hall: What message would have mattered enough to change your path or guide you in the right direction? The room immediately filled with careful thought & motivation to share.
Through CEF’s Walls That Speak project, justice impacted youth create posters with visual messages for their community elementary schools. Each poster is a medium that shares guidance they wish they had received, a message that would have made a difference for them. Each poster pays forward a hint of wisdom intended to prevent crisis impact and support our even younger generations. Participants reclaim their value, by spreading positive inspiration based on their own experiences.
We will give every youth we serve, the opportunity to positively contribute to their community, no matter their current circumstance 🙏🏾✨🎨 This is rehabilitation.
