Youth United releases an article titled “The Decay of Merced Parks” presented at city council and published here on We’Ced Youth Media website.

I spent 15 years of service with yli, focusing on areas ranging from Transportation Justice, Financial & Economic Justice, Health Equity, and Training & Consulting Services. yli changed my life by creating the “place” where I was able to USE MY VOICE and develop the skills to create systems change. I grew up at yli, both professionally and socially, and what I gained from the people and my experiences continue to serve as the guiding star in my life and career.
