We have the right to feel safe in our schools and our community.
Launched in 2018, Pathways 2 Power is a student-led initiative started out of Thurgood Marshall Academy in Washington, D.C. that seeks to support and empower local young people to take lead on causes that impact their lives and their futures, such as gun violence, mental health, education, poverty, and gentrification.
WHAT WE DO
Last school year we grieved the death of two of our peers, Zaire Kelly and Paris Brown. Out of that grief, our voice has grown stronger.
WHO WE ARE
Our organization began with a group of students from Thurgood Marshall Academy, but is growing to include youth from all around Washington, DC.
ISSUES
For far too long, youth voices have been shut out and not included at the decision making table. We seek solutions to our problems.
