Roxbury Environmental Empowerment Project: REEP

I am here for Networking

About Me

REEP IS A YOUTH LED PROGRAM LOCATED IN DUDLEY SQUARE IN ROXBURY, MASSACHUSETTS. WE TEACH TEENS ABOUT ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE. YOUR ENVIRONMENT IS YOUR SURROUNDINGS. OFTEN WHAT SURROUNDS YOU IN YOUR COMMUNITIES SUCK. WE WORK WITH TEENS,ADULTS AND CITY OFFICIALS TO MAKE OUR NEIGHBORHOODS BETTER FOR EVERYONE.REEP HAS DONE SO MUCH. WE HAVE RALLIED, MARCHED, AND HAD YOUTH SUMMITS. WE HAVE BEEN WORKING ON THE SUMMER JOBS CAMPAIGN FOR ABOUT TWO YEARS. YOUTH HAVE GATHERED AT THE CITY HALL CHAMBERS TO WATCH CITY COUNCILORS DECIDE ON GIVING US MORE MONEY FOR SUMMER JOBS. WE DID NOT GET THE MONEY BUT WE DID GET THE HOPELINE EXTENDED FOR AN EXTRA TWO WEEKS. WE DIDNT GET THE MONEY BUT IN THE END WE STILL HAD A VICTORY BECAUSE WE MET MANY YOUTH AND BUILT A STRONG TEAM OF YOUTH LEADERS.found this flowers layout at HOT FreeLayouts.com :: MyHotComments MySpace Layouts @ HOT FreeLayouts.com MyHotComments
