Welcoming Michigan will partner with JIRAN (Join In to Revitalize Arab American Neighborhoods), a community program of ACCESS, and the Partnership for Youth Initiative, a Skillman funded youth leadership project that works in the Chadsey Condon and Southwest Detroit communities, to host a dialogue on race and diversity for youth from southwest Detroit. Session on diversity will be led by Michigan Roundtable, MOSAIC Youth Theater will perform “Speak for Yourself: Young Detroiters Speak About Race”, the youth will engage in facilitated dialogue and action planning, and end the day with a visit to the Arab American Museum. The youth will address how they can make their communities more welcoming for newcomers from all backgrounds.
