PV creates brave spaces with girls and gender expansive youth of color to take charge of their own power as leaders, igniting their abilities to confidently express themselves, build community, and act against injustices affecting their lives.
Something I’ve learned about being an Activista is the power of community. It’s nice to have a community that loves and supports you no matter what. Communities don’t need a leader to be strong, they can be strong on their own.
