| One by Youth Makeover Recap |
|
When the City of Manassas was chosen as the national pilot site for the 1 By Youth project, Neighborhood Services Manager Kisha Wilson-Sogunro chose the Georgetown South Community as a project site, partly because of their willing participation in a City-sponsored Neighborhood Improvement Circle in Spring 2009 and their resulting action plan. This 12-minute video, “Georgetown South: Community at a Crossroads” was produced by Kayt Jonsson, a graduate film student and Casey Nitsch, an undergraduate student in Anthropology, for their Documentary Storytelling class, led by Professor Nina Shapiro-Perl at American University. If you would like to participate as a business sponsor, neighborhood partner or community volunteer in the Week of Hope program this summer, contact Kisha Wilson-Sogunro at 703-257-8240. If you would like to start a Neighborhood Watch or Business Watch, contact Officer Scott Stallard, City of Manassas Police Department at 703-257-8179.
