New Voices are Rising Summer Advocacy Training Institute 2011 is here!!

The first week of the program is underway and we've got a lively and dedicated group of young scholars again this year! We want you to get to know them, so we are profiling about 2 students each week.






Meet Prescilla Seng
Age: 17
School: Oakland Technical High School



One thing you can't tell about me from looking at me is: I took Samba for 3 years in middle school.

If you really knew me you would know: that I am goofy and hyper with a beautiful personality.

Why I joined this program: I want to better the environment in my own way, so I want to explore a wide range of ways to do this. I also want to broaden my knowledge and experience.

Meet Euchari Murray-Graham
Age: 17
School: Oakland Technical High School






One thing you can't tell from looking at me is: that I am a classically trained singer. If you really knew me you would know: that I never stop talking or joking.

I joined the Rose Foundation's summer program to gain valuable work experience and to do my best to help the local community.
