Men Making A Difference
Men Making a Difference (MMAD) will host a June youth Breakfast series. Each Saturday morning in the month of June from 9:00 am- 1:00 pm, we will bring together the youth of North Lawndale and their families for a free breakfast cooked by local community members with food obtained from community businesses. After breakfast and fellowship, we will engage youth in peace circles. The peacemaking circle is a process that will bring together the youth of our community to engage in conflict resolution, healing, support, decision making and other activities in which honest communications, relationship development, and community building are centered. After peace circles, leftovers will be given out, to provide further sustenance to youth and their family after the event.
