In His Words...

"Growing up I attended this after school program in Portland called Neighborhood House for kids K-12. One thing that always stood out to me was some of the violence I would see and even have happened to me...Dr. Eddie changed my viewpoint on change in our city. He showed me that if you want change in your life and in your community, it starts with taking the initiative and being the change."
