The time is now for asserting Black & Brown families into the forefront of this movement for social justice, safety, and sustainability. Therefore, Spearitwurx offered the Powerful Parent Conference that engaged parents and youth of color in developing tools, sharing resources, and building authentic connections that build resiliency, conjure safety, and demand self-sustainability and self-determination.
