I'm proud to be a co-founder of the RYSE Youth Center, the concept for which was developed over a decade ago by a coalition that included RYSE Executive Director Kimberly Aceves and our numerous local youth partners. 

Today, the Center is a powerful symbol of what can be achieved when we invest in young people and empower them to lead community-based institutions. 

 

Please join us this Saturday and support this important work!
