“WPHW has empowered me and other youth to make meaningful changes in our communities, breaking the stereotype that youth cannot make a difference because they are young. WPH and WHW opened my eyes to all the different issues impacting our communities and the world and helped me realize I was enough to make a difference.”
"With the pandemic, a lot of things are food sovereignty focused. A lot of it is related to access. I was helping out at the food pantry and I knew everyone who was there. I have known them since I was born. It’s an intimate experience because of that. My work feels more meaningful."
“My vision for our communities is to connect our elders and our youth. There are a lot of older people who have learned the language and have a wealth of knowledge. Trying to tap into how to connect with these elders to share the knowledge they have, this is something that has to happen across all ages.”
