We are now looking for 40 energetic volunteers to complete the work started by YALIES on the Day of Service last month. Afterwards, volunteers will enjoy a barbeque at the garden. Children and Families Welcome!

We wish to invite everyone to the upcoming Public Service/Social Justice Meeting.

We have many exciting projects and prospects as we try to build on the momentum we gained from the Yale Day of Service in May. Additionally, our social justice/juvenile justice project in collaboration with the very progressive Mayor Booker of Newark is currently underway and a preliminary task force has been formed. Our hope is to build a team of volunteers from diverse professions that will help transform Newark's Juvenile Justice System so that children have the opportunity to develop to their fullest potential.

We look forward to seeing you.

All the best,
Anne Moss
