Junior Warrior Training (JWT)—our leadership and life-skills program for kids ages 5–13—has once again been a powerful reminder of why we do this work. This year, we watched kids show up unsure of themselves and leave standing taller, more confident, and believing they matter. We saw friendships form, courage grow, and sparks of leadership ignite.…
