Yolanda Morales, our featured speaker at the Golf Outing, is a social worker at Boys' Latin of Philadelphia Charter School, one of our partner institutions where The Center has provided crisis support in the wake of two students who were murdered. Yolanda gave an incredible speech about the need for more supports for grieving students, remarking:
"
We recognize the need to provide our students with structures and understanding that will enable them to grow as individuals, to be strong learners and healthy citizens. The Center ensures that our students' emotional needs are addressed. The difference they have made for students, who sometimes have had no grief support, is striking."
We want to thank Yolanda for being such a wonderful resource for children, and we look forward to deepening our relationship with Boys' Latin.
