Echoes of Change
Voices of youth and partners making change.
"Youth 4444 Change gave me a voice at a time when I truly believed I didn’t have one. It helped me understand that my story—surviving trauma, homelessness, and injustice—could be a catalyst for change. It pushed me to speak up, show up, and stay involved in the decisions shaping our community."
— Paris Mendoza
As an employee of Synergy Services, I've had the ability to watch the Youth 4444 Change group come together, evolve, grow, learn lessons, and achieve success since 2010. I am proud that the KC youth partnering organizations continue to make space and contribute resources to this effort. However, the real heartbeat of the group is the youth themselves. The passion, knowledge, and life of this group is something that can only occur organically. This group is incredibly valuable to our community and to me as an adult working in the youth field. Their commitment to building off their impact from year to year in order the make a better community for all youth is inspiring.
