Youth

Stay W.O.K.E. D.C. is dedicated to providing a supportive space for traumatized youth in Washington D.C. Our program offers a holistic approach to helping youth create a future worth fighting for, rather than battling one another. We are committed to being 100% trauma-informed and 100% youth-led. Our focus is deeply rooted in the Ward 8 community, providing opportunities for resilient teens (ages 13+) and their families to learn wellness practices, peer support, and community organizing skills. Through our program, we aim to transform the effects of childhood trauma into triumphs, empowering youth to lead healthy and fulfilling lives.
