What Now America is proud to host a Back to School Outdoor Event to draw community members to an activity-filled day that will raise awareness of WNA’s after school program.
The purpose of this event is to go into the West Oakland neighborhood and really get a feel for the community. In addition to helping kids/youth prepare for the new school year, we will try to capture as much information from the youth as possible about what they lack during the school year which will help better guide our organization to suiting their specific needs.
