Did you know that one of this year's grant recipient's was the Apex Police Youth Enrichment Camp. In a world where community engagement and positive law enforcement interactions are vital, police youth summer camps have emerged as a beacon of hope and an opportunity for building strong relationships between law enforcement agencies and the younger generation. These camps provide a unique and enriching experience that goes beyond the conventional summer activities, fostering trust, understanding, and leadership skills among the youth. 2023 marked the 14th anniversary of the Apex Police Department’s Youth Enrichment Camp. The positive effects of YEC ripple beyond the participants themselves. As these young individuals return to their communities, they become ambassadors of understanding, sharing their experiences and insights with peers, family members, and neighbors. This leads to improved relationships between the police and the community at large, fostering a culture of trust and collaboration. In an era where building bridges between law enforcement agencies and the youth they serve is paramount, police youth summer camps emerge as a transformative force. Through fostering understanding, nurturing leadership skills, and creating lasting relationships, these camps lay the foundation for a brighter and more cohesive future.

@AAERTT - No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it. Albert Einstein
Go Jags is all good for most football fans in Jax. As an individual, I say, at what price for the two percenters stadium? Research shows that the NFL Games do not impact taxpayers' quality of Life or the city. Plus, the folly to invest in Eastside is fool gold unless the Eastside dollars are simulating with the stadium renovation. To elevate a community, four pillars are required - rebuilding the family infrastructure, Afrocentric education, preventative health, and collective economics. African American leadership must demand more from the city when addressing unmet promises unfulfilled. Let Go, Jaguars, but put the citizens First. The African American leadership on the Eastside is dysfunctional. Albert Einstein once said we cannot solve our problems using the same thinking that created the problem when it comes to elevating the thinking and embracing stem education through workshops. The Jaguars or the city cannot save the Eastside without community activists, entrepreneurs, and subject matter experts who live in the community. Donna promises the Urban Core. Real talk.

This book is bound to be a success
President & CEO at Marguerite Casey Foundation
One of my favorite parts of serving as Marguerite Casey Foundation's president and CEO is working with an outstanding board of directors, including the one and only Stacey Abrams. I had the honor and pleasure of spending time with Stacey last month celebrating her latest book “Rogue Justice” with a packed house of fans and supporters. “Rogue Justice” is a riveting political thriller grappling with real-world issues we can’t ignore. If you haven’t read it, I urge you to get a copy today, or ask your library to do so! Congratulations, Stacey, on your latest masterpiece, and thank you so much for all you do for MCF on our board of directors! H/t to the First Baptist Church in Winston-Salem, North Carolina for hosting this event, and to Bookmarks for sponsoring this event with support from Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton LLP.
