WHAT IS #LTWYS23?
This a new event for young people who want to have an influence on crucial issues affecting their generation and future generations. We will create a supportive environment for dialogue between younger generations and those who can enact positive change.
It is with a sense of sadness that we acknowledge the closure of the One/Third Project. The Lead The Way Youth Summit will remain steadfast in its commitment to continuing the legacy established by the One/Third Project.

This is what makes me smile and my heart beat. Young people as young as 6 enjoying loneliness resources that I created!!!! Ahhhh
Seeing the first hand impact the postcards had, made the trauma of loneliness disappear.
One day I hope every child has access to this resource 🚀❤️
