CALO YouthBuild's 2015 Issues Forum is an opportunity for youth to share their knowledge and insight with policy makers and the community at large. Young researchers and organizers will be presenting on issues related to gentrification, police brutality and environmental justice. In addition to framing the issues, these youth will be offering policy suggestions to our elected representatives and other guests. This is what democracy looks like. Please come out and support our youth as they shed light on some of the most important issues facing our community and join them as we envision a future full of dignity, health, and justice.
