Another group of youth graduated from our ICM Braiding Workshop.

A few weeks ago they were learning the basics. Today they’re showing off their work with confidence.

We LOVE seeing youth discover talents they didn’t know they had.

Honored to receive the Shining Star Community Partner Award from Tacoma Public Schools.

For the past four years, Tacoma Public Schools has trusted us to walk alongside their students and staff. That partnership has given us the opportunity to not create programming FOR youth, but WITH youth. Together, we’ve built spaces where young people are valued and empowered to help shape the resources they need to be successful.

Thank you to the admin, counselors, teachers, and school staff who have opened their doors, listened to our ideas, and allowed us the freedom to be innovative in how we serve young people.

This award represents what is possible when schools and community come together with a shared commitment to our youth. I’m grateful for the partnership, proud of the work we’ve accomplished together, and excited for what’s ahead.

The work continues.

Barbers, Beauticians, Certified Peer Counselors, resources, supplies, cuts and conversations… it’s different when we show up.

It’s never just about haircuts. It’s about creating a space where youth feel seen, supported and connected to community.

we want to give you your flowers. The way you show up as a man, a father, a husband, a servant of God, and a leader in this community is something our entire team truly respects. You lead by example in everything you do. Your love and support for the ICM movement means more than you know, and we appreciate you!

Va**ng has been sold to our youth as something harmless but the truth is it is hooking a generation before their brains are even fully developed. Ni****ne makes it harder to focus, harder to control impulses, and easier to get addicted without even realizing it. This PSA was created by our youth to remind their peers that their future is worth protecting. Choose your health. Choose your voice. Choose you.
