Soñando y Cambiando: A vision to heal our communities

This mural was inspired by a youth 10-point plan led by young people from 67 Sueños and other youth organizations in the Free Our Kids (FOK) Coalition in Alameda County. The youth from the FOK have a vision to change the way we approach juvenile justice in Alameda County.
