"Leaving young people out of the recovery packages will have significant economic consequences on our future work lives.”

“Anyone can speak on all the things that are wrong in our communities, but it takes a certain individual to seek a position where they can change the way things are and make things better for the youth to flourish and thrive.”
Jasmin Angeles on being a Role Model
“I want to be someone who makes a difference for the younger generation, and who stands for what is true and right. I want to help others understand that when an opportunity comes their way, it’s important to improve themselves and take it.”
