For a year, the Enrichment 2 Empowerment program has supported young people in understanding the root causes of violence and its impact on themselves, their families, and their neighborhoods. Engaged participants interviewed dozens of New Orleanians to reveal the reality of violence in the city along with solutions and what can provide hope.

This documentary screening is the next step in their social action campaign that leverages their experience and insight. They hope attendees of the screening join them in calling on city leaders to increase and maintain funding for youth programming and resources.
