We are continuing to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month by highlighting our Hispanic staff! Sandy (she/ella), Gaviota (they/elle), and Jayme (she/ella) understand the importance of their roles in representing not only our young people, but connecting with the larger Baltimore community. Hear from them how their culture connects to their work, and how having Spanish-speakers makes a better, more equitable Thread. #Baltimore #Maryland #HispanicHeritageMonth #DEI #Bilingual #Spanish #CommunityBuilding #Nonprofit #NewSocialFabric #WovenStrong

Huge shout-out to Thread volunteer Abby for connecting young person Taymont to the Under Armour Performance Center for a shadow day! Not only did Taymont co-lead a workout (and show off his strength) he was introduced to a pathway to make his vocational dream a reality. #Baltimore #Maryland #YouthLeadership #Nonprofit #Ravens #CommunityBuilding #Pathway #Vocational #NewSocialFabric #WovenStrong
