One of the things that has been so powerful for us is our intergenerational impact. We have been working on our children's framework for 3-11 year olds for the past year in partnership with a grant from 4.0 Schools. Thank you to our co-founder Christine Daisy Han and Embracing Equity for guiding us in their powerful work!

We are excited to begin offering our children's workshops in 2019.

A part of DEEP's WHY is intergenerational impact. If adults and youth do not have the tools to speak to each other about race and inequity then our children can never stand on the shoulders of our work. This weekend, the NH ACLU with support from DEEP, launched their first race and equity youth forum in the state of NH.

The youth answered! We are honored to support the creation of spaces for youth where adults will listen. Special Shouts out to City Year for sending powerful staff and corps members to support our work in changing the world. Jason Bonilla we see you! http://www.nhpr.org/post/aclu-hosts-youth-forum-race-and-racism-new-hampshire /0

The Press is in... Starz’s America to Me!

Diverse, liberal communities can still harbor racism and inequity. Can the honest stories of young people compel adults to pay attention? A 10-part TV series is urging more conversations.
