#StopAsianHate #Bullying #SolidarityMatters #CommunitySupport #YouthProgram

Daniel’s #CommunityVoices story is a reminder that when faced with fear and ignorance, we must choose curiosity and community to build solidarity across all marginalized identities 🙌

He joined Khmer Girls in Action (KGA), finding strength in his Southeast Asian heritage and understanding the systemic roots of racism. Daniel not only healed, but became a leader, championing anti-racism efforts for Black youth on campus.

… for taking the time to listen. We are grateful for your dedication and leadership in hearing and supporting our fight!

Mary’s #CommunityVoices story is an important reminder of how support from and for an entire family is necessary in order for a child to thrive. It really does take a village 🙌

The Center was there every step of the way, offering crucial support like legal aid and even counseling through their monthly TransParent support group. Now, Mary pays it forward by supporting other families.

Thank you...

Yolanda’s #CommunityVoices story shows us how crucial it is for students to have access to trusted role models. Yolanda learned that Sasha’s way of connecting is actually through dance 🙌

Antelope Valley Partners for Health’s Community Health Specialist, Yolanda, facilitated a dance workshop at a local middle school. When Sasha began acting out, Yolanda responded with compassion.
