Activate Your Story Returns!
+ME is proud to offer our second annual Activate Your Story event for students!
This 5-week workshop series is intended to support youth in finding their voice, activating their story, and building community. Students receive assignments along with a journal used to complete them over the course of the week, culminating in a presentation from a community champion each week who's life experience offers inspiration tied to the workshop theme.
In 2021 we offered this experience to 50 students, and received overwhelmingly positive feedback from participants. Here are some of their reflections:
"After sharing, I felt really motivated and happy. I felt really comfortable sharing with others because we are supportive of one another and my voice was heard."
-Student survey response
"My biggest takeaway was to learn to love myself. in a world where so many people are quick to invalidate others and strip them away from their dreams, loving yourself is so important."
-Student survey response
We look forward to welcoming this year’s cohort
