From Degale Cooper, Incoming CEO:
“YouthCare mourns alongside staff and clients who are grappling with the recent shootings in Texas, New York, and California. These horrific acts of violence have targeted communities of color in the places we all should feel most safe: schools, grocery stores, and in houses of prayer. As an organization, we work every day for a world where our clients can feel secure, protected, and cared for. We implore government partners to share in this mission and take swift and decisive action: both to pass comprehensive gun control, and to undo the deep legacy of racism embedded in this nation.”
