Welcome Home LA

If WE don't do it, it wont get done! We already know these new upgrades in our community ain't for US! Gentrification has already trickled down & affected Chucos Justice Center in Inglewood & we are currently being pushed out by Metro via eminent domain having our community center turned into a parking lot before the end of this year. . . We are in process of getting a new building, but we need to raise the money to rebuild the old run down Kenyon Court Detention Center & transforming the utility of the space "From Punishment 2 Empowerment" . . We're organizing a fundraiser event...a Community Arts Stage that would serve as a platform of artistic expression FOR the People of the community, BY the People! We're looking at Sat March 31st or Sat. April 7th. . . From spoken word, poetry, dance, graph art, stenciling, & we will definitely need community support! DM us here or @youthjusticela today on how you can donate & participate to not just #saveChucos but #rebuildChucosJusticeCenter so that we can continue to do the work & be a center of refuge & support to empower & uplift the youth & families of Los Angeles communities. #stayTuned #frompunishment2empowerment #rp @zellieimani

Welcome Home Jean! Met him doing outreach at a P.A.C.T meeting at Compton College last month. He came all the way from San Fernando Valley looking for resources last weekend & we were honored to able to provide him with business attire & a bus pass for his new job he started this week! . . He's skilled in doing audio engineering, grip work, staging, fluent in sign language and has the will, drive & determination to rise above every obstacle to make his life better! Its men & women like Jean that encourage & inspire me everyday to keep pushing, striving & to NEVER give up! #FreeLA #freeamerica #Welcomehomela #imfreeandstayingfree #youthjusticecoalition #chucosjusticecenter #onelove ❤💛💚 (at Youth Justice Coalition)
