My interest in policy stemmed from a deep passion for social justice, and with that, my experience getting involved in promoting important pieces of legislation through the Religious Action Center of Pennsylvania.
In the seven years since the RAC Teen Justice Fellowship began, we have seen that teens can create extraordinary change. In the 2023-2024 school year, more than 170 young people from 33 states and provinces were trained as Teen Justice Fellows. These teens see injustice in the world and are united in their dedication to helping repair it.
Through this fellowship, I learned about community organizing and the many challenges involved. Civic engagement is difficult, but this was definitely a great learning experience and made me a more confident community organizer.
Due to the ongoing risks posed by COVID-19, we have made the difficult decision to cancel all in-person L’Taken Social Justice Seminars for the 2020-2021 season.
