Who We Are
Our Partners
Many hands make the load light and because each of us has a role to play in closing the long-standing and discriminatory opportunity gaps experienced by, BYMOC, we literally cannot do our work without our partners. Changing systems is only possible when the people who run them decide to change as a result of advocacy from those directly impacted. Changing systems is a community effort. Thank you for stepping up to lead and facilitate the way forward for all of us!
