Youth Empowerment Series: The Importance of Education Equity

By Jennifer Sirangelo • June 26, 2020

The passion and drive of young people to create change, lead in their field of interest, and support their communities should be recognized and celebrated. That’s why it’s a priority for me to uplift their voices by sharing their stories and work. Every month, I will have conversations with young alumni and 4-H’ers in my new Youth Empowerment Series. This month, I talk education equity with Stanley Celestine, Jr., Louisiana 4-H alum, founder of Forum for Opportunity Youth, and member of the Avoyelles Parish School Board!
