Driven by a passionate commitment to uplift Black and Brown communities, Know Your Rights Camp wholeheartedly embraces the power of education to inspire self-empowerment, mobilize communities, and pioneer transformative systems. These efforts aim to elevate a new generation poised to lead profound change. Our camps embody the heart and soul of this mission, turning our deeply held beliefs into vibrant, tangible realities.

​

Our 12th camp was held at Cass Technical High School in Detroit and was an unforgettable day filled with inspiration and learning. We welcomed eager young minds from across the region, immersing them in their rich heritage while ensuring they learned their legal rights. Youth in attendance were presented with valuable knowledge about finance and opportunities within the tech industry. The event also emphasized the importance of nurturing both the mind and body through presentations about mental health and physical health. By the end of the day, every child left with their spirits soaring, equipped with the knowledge and tools to transform their communities and the world.

​

We are deeply grateful for our co-founders Colin & Nessa, the KYRC team and it's volunteers as well as the various presenters at KYRC Detroit: Brandan ‘BMike’ Odums and the Eternal Seeds team (Art), Cyekeia Lee and Mariela Regalado (Education), Melissa Jean-Baptiste (Finance), Crystal Bernard and Alana Burke (History), Nicole and Cayden Brown (Legal Rights), Haven Essien & Dr. Daicia Price (Mental Health), Armond Rashaad (Physical Health) and Antoine Digital (Technology). Their dedication and passion have been instrumental in making our mission a reality, and we are honored to have them as part of our community.
