ABOUT OUR VISION
"Inspiring Transformational Leadership in the World”
The Children Are Our Future envisions an inter-generational community in which youth are valued, respected, and honored by a collaborative support system of adults who are organized and trained to help them realize their potential. This logo came to the founder of Children are our Future Terry Williams in a vision on her 8000 mile multi-cultural relay-run for indigenous peoples and peace from Alaska to Sante Fe, New Mexico. |
