September: Safety in Solidarity

We are back from our summer hiatus to bring you a new Young News Now article titled "Safety in Solidarity: Staying Safe While Advocating for Social Justice." With the increased violence and political polarization, it’s important that as we are doing critical advocacy, we are aware of the risks and know how to keep ourselves safe. This month, Young News Now focuses on what the concerns are surrounding advocacy work, and some quick “Do’s and Don’ts” when you’re participating in social justice work!

Breast Cancer Awareness

As many know, October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. However, the history is rarely shared. Breast Cancer impacts millions of people each year, and October is dedicated to raising awareness, talking about personal stories, and advocating for patients and further research.
