ThrYve youth Nicholas Brass, Travion Harris, Antonio Garrett, Tahj Harris, La’Nya Meade, JeKyia Hall, Destiny Johnson, and Barry Anderson were interviewed for KCUR 89.3. This led to ThrYve youth being published in articles “From ‘Crime-Dotte’ To Wyandotte – Kansas City, Kansas” and “Teens Are Fed Up With The Violence and We’re Killing Off Our Youth’ – Kansas City, Kansas, Mourns The Sixth In A String Of Killings” both by Andrea Tudhope. The youth’s testimonies begged the question, what are we doing about it?
ThrYve is a youth violence prevention program currently working toward making that change. If you would like to learn more information or discover how you can get involved email us at thryve@ku.edu
