Project PAVE

Today, we honor Juneteenth as a celebration of freedom, resilience, and the ongoing pursuit of equality.

At Project PAVE, we recognize that building safer communities also means working toward justice, dignity, and belonging for all youth and families.

We celebrate today with reflection, gratitude, and continued commitment to this work.

Teen mental health is a serious and growing concern, especially for young men who are often taught to hide their emotions or struggle in silence. Through our True Man program, Project PAVE creates space for young men to talk openly, build supportive relationships, and challenge the stigma surrounding mental health.

🏳️‍🌈 Healthy relationships are part of pride. LGBTQIA+ youth experience dating violence at higher rates than their heterosexual and cisgender peers. This Pride Month, we're celebrating LGBTQ+ young people and promoting relationships rooted in respect, consent, safety, and belonging.
