    🌱 Big news from Huckleberrys Youth Justice division. We’re excited to announce SEEDS OF CHANGE. 🌱

The San Francisco Youth Justice Initiative (formerly Project READY) team at Huckleberry is now officially SEEDS of Change, or just SEEDS for short! 🌱

SEEDS is still part of the SF Youth Justice Initiative, but this new name — CHOSEN BY YOUTH, FOR YOUTH— better reflects our mission and energy. 💚

SEEDS is all about growth, empowerment, and real change for young people in San Francisco.

SEEDS is a prevention program in Huckleberry’s Justice Division working with middle school students and families to disrupt the school-to-prison pipeline. That means supporting students to stay in school, succeed in class, and stay out of the juvenile justice system.

Were honored to collaborate with amazing partners like Coleman Advocates, Young Community Developers, Legal Services for Children, Disability Rights California and Youth Law Center in SEEDS important work. 💚
