Mission

Vision

Philosophy

Our mission is to nurture mindfulness, creativity and activism in young people by teaching stress management and creative expression strategies, creating a space for healing and reflection that builds their level of civic engagement.

We envision a world without poverty and prisons, where black communities are not only trauma responsive but actively taking steps to heal from the impact of structural racism.

We offer mindfulness and creative workshops to facilitate trauma responsive programming, building social and emotional skills within our community. Collaboration with schools and families helps to ensure that there are no barriers to a child's success. We have developed our mutual aid and organizing efforts to address the inequities experienced in Baltimore’s neighborhoods, as we know that the conditions for black and brown youth outside of school heavily influence their success INside the school!
