Greetings Fam,

Just checking in.  I wanted to encourage you all to find a reason to be thankful in this season.  There is so much going on constantly around us to distract us from the things that matter in life. You are so important and deeply loved.  You deserve to be where you are celebrated not just simply tolerated. You have a right to express yourself, and be respected as an autonomous human being.

We have seen a consistent uptick in the amount of misplaced anger and aggression demonstrated on campuses by Administrators, teachers and students.  We continue to work with families to support them as they navigate the education system. We remain focused on advocating for the fair treatment of our children by adults who should show more compassion , empathy and skill.  BYLP is committed to supporting the various needs of Black children and their families.  If you need us, call or email us. We promise to answer.

We LOVE our community and will never turn a family in need away regardless of their ethnicity. Although we are intentional about our support of Black children, all are welcomed here.

In Community,

Lorreen R. Pryor
