"We need to make sure that in the OY space, we create ways that let youth identify and create their value. Troubled youth are the product of steady disinvestments. Successful youth live in worlds that value connection; this knowledge is crucial to future investments.”
"There's too much focus on individual change as opposed to systemic change. A young person could do everything right but still enter a system of inequity."
"I want to see young people have the freedom and autonomy to navigate the world on their own terms, exploring their interests without feeling constrained.”
"My hope is that young people can find and access community better. Healing work is connected to community connection and social connection."
