We are so pleased to welcome five exceptional students from local High Schools to share their reflections on the impact of the housing crisis on young people in our community.

The Housing Leadership Council of San Mateo County partnered with local teachers and High Schools asking students to share how they experience and view the issue of housing in Silicon Valley through their writing and their art.

The event will kick off at 6:30pm with refreshments. At 7:00pm each student will take to the stage to share their work and receive an award from Cecilia Taylor, Vice Mayor of Menlo Park.

Student Awardees:

Max Villalobos, East Palo Alto

Lucia Amieva-Wang, Palo Alto

Marc Lenzi, Menlo Park

Jenny Tseng, Palo Alto

Clara Reinhold, Menlo Park

Please join us for this special evening celebrating the the powerful and moving perspectives of our local youth.
