In the wake of the unrest of communities around the world, Bootsy Collins and his love funk ambassadors are creating an artist-driven campaign spreading hope with the power of music and dance.

Calming Youth Violence Through The Power of Music & Dance.
 

 

 

- Thousands of people experience youth violence every day. Youth violence negatively impacts youth in all communities—urban, suburban, rural, and tribal. (Youth.Gov)

​

- Youth violence is common. 1 in 5 high school students reported being bullied on school property in the past year. (Youth.Gov)

 

- Youth violence kills and injuries. Homicide is now a leading cause of death for young people ages 10-24. Each day, approximately 12 young people are victims of homicide and almost 1,400 are treated in emergency departments for nonfatal assault-related injuries. (Youth.Gov)

Why the need?
