The kNOw youth travel to Sacramento to represent Boys and Men of Color

Today, Miguel Bibanco, Quamir Lindsay, and  Kevin Shelton of The kNOw Youth Media, are at the California State Capitol. They’re representing Boys and Men of Color specifically from the Central Valley- Fresno to state legislators. They’ll be specifically addressing the obstacles for Boys and Men of Color in their struggle to reach success.  We thank The Alliance for Boys and Men of Color and Health Happens Here for allowing the youth of The kNOw to share youth voice at the state level.

Here are a few photos of our youth from the event:
