Message from our SBNA Teen Council Chairperson:

I am currently the Teen Council chair (of the South Baltimore Neighborhood Association).  The Teen Council provides opportunities for teenagers in the South Baltimore area including:  helping the youth of South Baltimore finish high school, dream about their futures, and become productive, contributing members of their community.
The objective is to do this by exposing them to arts, culture, and people of many backgrounds and through educational programs.  The vehicle to achieve this is service learning projects, outreach to other teen groups, partnerships with other programs that can provide educational programming, self reflective exercises, and team building fun events.

Here from the kids themselves!!     http://youtu.be/4ZzOLwXL2IU
