The 16- to 24-year-old members of the Zuni Youth Enrichment Project’s Youth Advisory Council recently hosted a special self-empowerment event for Zuni Middle School students. The event took place at 5:30-7:30 p.m. on Thursday, April 24 at Ho’n A:wan Park.
Council members Ryann Cornelius, Kalil Edaakie, Keely Bobelu, Jasmine Bradley, Raymond Homer and Sophie Riley invited students participating in ZYEP’s “Rooted in Healthy Traditions” after-school program to participate in the event, as well as athletes from the ZMS softball team. Over two inspiring hours, the group listened to a presentation from community leader Zowie Banteah-Yuselew and created vision boards.
