Community care is not one-size-fits-all.

It must be rooted in belonging, responsibility, and local wisdom—just as Grace Lee Boggs taught. 💕

“You cannot change any society unless you take responsibility for it, unless you see yourself as belonging to it and responsible for changing it.”—Grace Lee Boggs, writer, philosopher, and longtime organizer based in Detroit.

Boggs spent her life building systems that center people—not performance. Her words call us back to a truth that systems too often forget: care must be co-created, not prescribed. 🙏🏿

As funding is stripped from the very solutions communities have built, we stay grounded in this truth: local wisdom isn’t optional—it’s essential infrastructure.

It must be designed with real people—and their realities—at the center. 💫

After three semesters of deep reflection, learning, and community building, Anais officially completed the Advanced Youth Development Certificate at the VCU Mary & Frances Youth Center—and she’s bringing that wisdom right back to The Hive. 👀

“This overall experience has been truly life-changing. I walked in hoping to refine the skills I already had, but I left with so much more: a better understanding of trauma-informed practices, new tools to manage my own biases, and a deeper sense of how to leverage my strengths to better support young people. I’m incredibly grateful to have learned alongside a powerful group of individuals who are truly reshaping what youth need in today’s world.” — Anais

The VCU Mary & Frances Youth Center Advanced Youth Development program wasn’t just about skill-building—it was about strengthening the human-centered mindset we value at The Hive. Congratulations, Anais! 💪🏿

Juneteenth isn’t just a historical marker—it’s a reflection of where we've been, how far we've come, and the freedom still being fought for.

Our mission is to uplift Black joy as a form of resistance, rest, and renewal. But we also pause to remember the deeper truth behind this day: freedom was delayed, and liberation remains a collective responsibility.

As we celebrate, we also commit—to telling the full story, holding space for the struggle, and building toward a future rooted in and care.

Today is for the mothers who loved us well.
For the mothers we miss.
For the mothers we’re still learning how to forgive.
And for the many ways we've learned to mother ourselves and each other.

However today meets you, you are seen, and loved!

Happy Mother’s Day 🌸

There’s no step-by-step guide for adulthood—especially when you’re carrying trauma, trying to unlearn survival mode, and searching for stability all at once.

That’s why we created the .

This isn’t just a program—it’s a self-paced experience rooted in truth, healing, legacy, and liberation. Every step is led by community, grounded in care, and focused on your growth.

We currently have a small opening on our squad! If you or someone you know is interested in joining, send us an interest form by clicking the link in our bio.

After years of thoughtful, youth-centered leadership, Kim Young is transitioning out of her role as The Hive’s Program Director. Her legacy lives on in the relationships built, systems strengthened, and unwavering care she brought to our community.

Seasons of change carry both reflection and renewal.

As we honor Kim’s impact, we also welcome Kristin Lennox into her new role as our Youth Transformation Agency Director. This position will guide the strategic direction of the Youth Transformation Agency while leveraging partnerships, increasing The Hive's visibility in the community, and helping us imagine how we transition our work into The Hive Campus.

Change doesn’t happen overnight. But with each new step, we stay rooted in what matters: our commitment to young people and those who walk with us.

Social workers stand in the gaps, amplify voices, and create pathways for change. Their work is rooted in empathy, resilience, and the belief that everyone deserves support and opportunity.

To those dedicating their time, energy, and hearts to this underserved and underpaid field—you are valued. Your presence is needed. Your impact is lasting.

Share with us in the comments a social worker you appreciate, or share how has impacted your life. Let's honor those who make a difference every day!
