This 12yo middle school student talked about how many of her loved ones have been lost to gun violence. She fills her time with activities but can't stop thinking about her family and friends who have passed. She's had enough. #DCGCYouthTownhall24 #HearUsHealUs #PridePurposePower
DHS' Deanna Pruitt told young people at the #DCGCTownhall24 about all the services available to them, including emergency shelter @SashaBruceYouth, diversion programs, & more, even as @MurielBowser is asking organizations that provide these services to cut their budgets...
Even @CMRobertWhiteDC struggled in high school, proving that we cannot count out ANY young people in #WashingtonDC. He came to #DCGCYouthTownhall24 to hear what young people need from DC leaders. #pridepowerpurpose

This 12yo middle school student talked about how many of her loved ones have been lost to gun violence. She fills her time with activities but can't stop thinking about her family and friends who have passed. She's had enough. #DCGCYouthTownhall24 #HearUsHealUs #PridePurposePower
DHS' Deanna Pruitt told young people at the #DCGCTownhall24 about all the services available to them, including emergency shelter @SashaBruceYouth, diversion programs, & more, even as @MurielBowser is asking organizations that provide these services to cut their budgets...
Even @CMRobertWhiteDC struggled in high school, proving that we cannot count out ANY young people in #WashingtonDC. He came to #DCGCYouthTownhall24 to hear what young people need from DC leaders. #pridepowerpurpose
Ty @ScottGoldstein for supporting and recognizing our youth and their voices.
It is so inspiring to be here with all of these AMAZING young people to listen to their voices about what they need to be safe and to succeed. Thank you to @DcgirlsC @BlackSwanAcad @MikvaDC @WeAreDCAction @schooltalk_inc and all the sponsors for making this happen! #YouthVoice
Our young people are bright, bold, and beautiful! Thank you @BlackSwanAcad and @DcgirlsC for organizing tonight’s youth town hall so we can listen to and lift up our youth. 🙏🏾 My message: “Harness your power now!” Don’t wait until you’re older to effectuate change in our city.
Now, even more evidence that Starbucks closed its Union Station store in 2022 to stop its workers from organizing - then they tried to pass it off as something else. Hats off to those workers for speaking out & standing in solidarity.
More than a year after Starbucks closed a location inside Union Station, federal regulators are calling for it to be reopened. nbc4dc.com/1jHz16r
Tell @MayorBowser not to take food and shelter from District residents to save a stadium. #TheGrinchWhoStoleSNAP
Grinch-like decisions impact those already struggling with homelessness and hunger. The @councilofdc’s commitment to funding SNAP increases is not just a suggestion—it's the law and the right thing to do. #TheGrinchWhoStoleSNAP
ICYMI: We sent a letter urging Mayor Bowser to reconsider the decision to disregard District law and deny District residents an increase to their SNAP benefits in 2024. Read here: christinahendersondc.com/press-releases…
Thousands of DC residents are now down to just $30 in SNAP benefits to cover groceries *for the entire month.* We allocated $39 million for food assistance that is funded but not being used. Increasing SNAP benefits is a critical lifeline for so many people facing hunger in DC.
ICYMI: My colleagues and I sent a letter urging Mayor Bowser to reconsider the decision to disregard District law and deny District residents an increase to their SNAP benefits in 2024. There’s $39 million in DHS’ budget ready for use. Read here: christinahendersondc.com/press-releases…
❄️Winter is here, and the Grinch-like decisions of #WashingtonDC leaders cast a cold shadow on the city. Prioritizing arenas over residents during the holidays is a disappointing choice. It's time for Mayor Bowser to reconsider and put people first. #TheGrinchWhoStoleSNAP
