At CitizensNYC, we’re proud to champion diverse leadership, and this Women’s History Month, we especially celebrate the 68% of our grantee partners who identify as women or non-binary.
Today we are highlighting Marrisa, Founder and Executive Director of @ARTEJustice an organization that empowers students to advocate for human rights through creativity. ARTE centers youth voices and nurtures leadership skills through opportunities to train and organize their peers in tackling local and global human rights challenges.
