KC CONNECT is a workshop series designed to equip youth and families across King County with culturally grounded, healing-centered tools to address conflict, build relationships, and lead community change. 

Our Vision

A King County where all young people and families have access to the tools, support, and spaces they need to resolve conflict, repair harm, and thrive in community.

Our Mission

To create interactive, youth-led spaces that support healing, develop leadership, and promote culturally grounded approaches to navigating conflict.

    How to Participate
