Missed our latest Young Women’s Mentorship Group?

Guest speaker LaTrecia Gipson shared practical tips for virtual interviews, from logging in early and making eye contact to dressing for the interview and practicing smoother answers.

One timely reminder: skip the AI during the interview. Employers can tell.

Abuse can start long before physical violence.

Controlling money, time, friendships, or access to a phone can all be warning signs. Knowing what to notice and how to respond can help someone get support earlier.

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month.

Young men are watching the men around them.

What they laugh at. What they challenge. What they let slide. How they treat people.

That sets the bar.

And when men raise that bar for each other, it changes what's expected.

Ese es el liderazgo que necesitamos. That's the leadership we need. 💪

Saturday’s Walk a Mile in Her Shoes was rainy, but the weather didn’t stop our community from showing up for survivors and speaking out against gender-based violence.

Building Strong Futures was there too, inviting people to think about what they want to focus on right now through our “Starting Five” activity and sharing information about our Youth Advisory Council for young people ages 16–24.

Prevention can start with simple conversations like these, asking what matters to people, sharing opportunities to get involved, and making space for young people to have a voice.

Thanks to everyone who walked, stopped by, and helped make the day meaningful.
