Meet The Team

Alnaw Elnaw is currently junior at Millennium High School and an educational volunteer at the Lower East Side Ecology Center. Out of all the issues Alnaw supports, he is most passionate about environmental protection. Alnaw would like to see more people dedicate themselves to a non-waste lifestyle. Alnaw also wants more schools to have the funding to offer classes in computer science, IT, and Graphic design. Youth organizing is the involvement of youth in planning and facilitating discussions surrounding issues in our community. It involves a large, diverse network of youth that are able to come together respectfully and work cooperatively towards a similar goal.

Francis Mejia is a senior at KIPP NYC College Preparatory. One change Francis would like is to get violence out of local communities and neighborhoods. The less violence we have, the more citizens will feel safe where they live. One way of achiving this is by holding a town meeting, and having community voices heard and taking action. We also need to open programs with the districts in order for kids to have access to different public spaces during the summertime or throughout the school year. We have a lot of teens that are knowledgeable of what’s going on. If we have a platform for people to listen to teens, then we can reach others and inspire them to use their voices.
