Parent & Youth Town Hall
Join us for a no-judgment, honest conversation about youth violence, curfew, parental resources, and accountability.
Save DC is a group of native and longtime Washingtonians who are concerned about the direction of our city and focused on saving the soul and autonomy of our city for those who value what we have stood for decades.
In partnership with Don’t Mute DC, parents, teachers, students and community who want to be a part of the solution.
We are having two conversations simultaneously. The event will close out with a unity celebration with free food and a live performance by youth Go-Go band Next Generation Krank.
