The Martin Luther King Youth Program
The over-arching goal of the Martin Luther King Youth Program is to inspire and empower high school students to become effective advocates and allies for peaceful social change on issues of violence, prejudice and discrimination.
The MLK Program is a product of the work of the Ceceilyn Miller Institute for Leadership and Diversity in America (CMI). The CMI is a human relations, consulting, and training non-profit organization. We are dedicated to helping individuals, groups, and systems function more effectively as people and communities.

This unique projects aims to raise awareness about the dangers of reckless driving to a large group of local teenagers. It would take place in at least five high schools in the Portland-Beaverton area. These schools totaling at about 11,045 students. If resources allow, I would love to expand this project to schools in other districts. Operation Awareness involves the attention of thousands of teenagers and the production of many wonderful, attention grabbing T-shirts that advertise smart driving and the need for teenagers to use peer influence to drive change.
