    YouthCARE Came Together to Celebrate
    Diversity & March for Equality
    on MLK Day
    On January 21, 2008, 50 youth, volunteers, and staff came together in St. Paul to represent YouthCARE, to celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King's dream, and to march for equality.

    "It was awesome to see all the youth get together and see how excited they were when they got to put on their purple T's. I agree with what Mayor Rybak said in his speech that we shouldn't just celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King's dream one day a year, we should celebrate it everyday!" - Millie
