Youth Visions - Rites of Passage Program

“Our mission is to make a meaningful difference in the lives of youth in our communities.”

In partnership with the Gifts of Hope organization, the Social Justice Film Institute is documenting a special trip to Senegal from December 26 - January 9, 2024, with 12 young Seattle high school students, a transformative and meaningful experience embarking on self-discovery and personal growth.

This is a wonderful experience that will be filled with discovery and connection. The Social Justice Film Institute will document not only the students' trip but hopefully capture a deeper understanding of their growth and the world around them.

As part of the Social Justice Film Festival Youth Visions Program, we will invite the Rites of Passage students to the 12th Edition Social Justice Film Festival in April 2025 to share their experiences in Senegal and view a short film about their journey.

Many thanks to the Community Fund @ Climate Pledge Area for their support for this program.
