An inside look into Bridging Beyond Barriers!

On May 23, Malden A-VOYCE youth leaders hosted their Bridging Beyond Barriers tabling event in Malden. Kudos to this year’s cohort of young leaders! Throughout the school year cycle, they showed so much care and empathy towards each other and for the community. They dedicated their school year to addressing language justice and planning their event!

Special thank you to our amazing partners who helped make this event possible: the City of Malden’s Language Access Coordinator — Elena Martinez — Creative Malden, Danyal Najmi of Rosetta Languages, teaching artist Vivian Ho and to City of Malden Mayor Gary Christenson for your support!

A-VOYCE is Asian Voices of Organized Youth for Community Empowerment, the Asian Community Development Corporation’s youth leadership program for high school students in the Greater Boston area.
