Thank you to everyone who joined us for the Community Collaboration meeting last night. This quarter’s meeting was hosted by the Mann Mentors, and they did an excellent job leading a thoughtful conversation about what it is like living in their neighborhood. They shared their perspectives on topics like traffic, building structure, and safety, and offered valuable insight into the everyday experiences of youth in the community.

Check out the recap. 📸✨

✨Friday Highlight: Celebrating Teddy Larios

Help us congratulate our very own Teddy Larios, Youth and Family Development Specialist, for receiving the 2025 Dr. Kitty Harris Award for Outstanding Service in the Area of Prevention of Substance Use and Violence and the Promotion of Wellness.

The Kitty Harris Award has recognized leaders in youth prevention since 1998. It honors individuals who give their time, energy, and compassion to support young people facing challenges related to substance use, violence, and overall wellness. This week, Teddy joined this remarkable group of changemakers.

Teddy has served in our Education Department for seven years and has played an important role in programs like Strengthening Families, Peer Mediation, the Youth Advisory Committee, and Parent Cafes. He has a gift for connecting with young people. He creates spaces where they feel safe, valued, and empowered to make healthy choices. He teaches leadership, decision making, and conflict resolution with patience and authenticity, and youth trust him because he always shows up for them.

His dedication does not stop at work. In his free time he can be found DJing youth events, spreading positive messages about faith from the turntables. Teddy’s favorite things are hanging out with his family, attending wrestling shows on the weekends and going to church on Sundays.

We are proud of him and grateful for everything he brings to our team. Join us in congratulating Teddy on this well deserved honor.👏🏼

Sounds of Success in action!🎵

Last week, we caught up with Charlie as she led Sounds of Success demonstrations in partnership with Window on a Wider World.

This hands-on program uses music-based activities to empower students and help them build essential life skills. Through rhythm, songwriting, and teamwork, students explore important qualities like critical thinking, self-worth, leadership, emotional expression, and healthy decision-making.

And the best part? It’s a blast!🎵😊
