Change starts here, and we are inviting you to become a part of it. PeaceJam wants to know: How will you answer the call?

WYSS SADD Club (Students Against Destructive Decisions) registered as a chapter of PeaceJam; they are calling their project group PeaceJam Waterbury. Other youth from ASPIRA, Crosby High School Key Club, WOW/NRZ Youth Council and WYSS WIA Program have joined them in their "Global Call to Action Project": to Reduce Homelessness in Waterbury.

• Respect and understand that all people are members of a community
• A homeless person is not invisible...speak to them
• Homeless people are just like us, they just don't have a place to live...anyone of us could be homeless some day
