On Friday, in honor of , we stepped out of the office for GOSO/SAVE's 5th Annual Community Block Party! We were there to continue bringing awareness to East Harlem, a community deeply impacted by this crisis, and to pay homage to the lives lost. We brought the community together in our orange shirts to show what a strong community looks like when it shows up and backs each other. 🧡

Thank you to all the incredible community-based and crisis management organizations who helped us pull this together and came out to table and share their resources with the community.

In continuation of kicking off Gun Violence Awareness Month, GOSO/ SAVE, in partnership with NYC's Office of Neighborhood Safety, the Crisis Management System, the Department of Youth and Community Development, and many powerful community-based organizations doing the work on the ground, held a press conference at Brooklyn Restoration Plaza.

A sea of orange filled the steps and the energy was undeniable. Our Director of Programs, Nicole Myers, said it best: "We as a collective are working to build a future where every young person can feel safe from violence."

That is exactly what we are fighting for. 🧡

GOSO is honored to be among the awardees to received a total of $300,000 to fund youth gun violence prevention initiatives this summer. This vital funding will help ensure that the youth we serve will be able to access jobs and, eventually, better futures. GOSO staff and participants joined Manhattan District Attorney's Office yesterday for a press conference to kick off .

The conference, themed Reimagining Through the Lens of Our Youth, brought together nearly 250 attendees to explore the real impact the justice system has on young people.

AJ and Jayden did not just attend. They took the stage, shared their stories, and reminded every person in that room why this work matters. We could not be more proud. 💙

We took it outside! Participants from GOSO's SAVE program headed to Jefferson Houses for a beautification day, getting their hands dirty and showing off their green thumbs. There is something powerful about young people investing in and caring for the community around them, knowing that their neighbors and loved ones will get to enjoy the beauty they created every single day. This is what showing up looks like. 🌱💚
