Empowering the Future – African American Males

On this episode of Fort Wayne Up Close, we welcome Dorothy Tinker, Director of Support Services at Wayne Township Trustee Office and Steve Lanier, President NAACP FWAC Branch 3049-B from the Center for Research on the Status of African American Males for an important and impactful conversation. Together, we explore the work being done to better understand, support, and elevate African American males in our community. From education and opportunity to challenges and solutions, this discussion brings awareness, insight, and a call to action. We also highlight the upcoming "Fort Wayne Summer Celebration" a Father Hood Initiative, a time to come together, celebrate culture, and strengthen community connections. Be sure to check out their Facebook page for more details and ways to get involved. This is about knowledge, empowerment, and building a stronger future—together. #FortWayneUpClose #CommunityImpact #AfricanAmericanMales #Empowerment #FortWayne #SummerCelebration #CommunityVoices #StrongerTogether #ONV #ConnectingCommunities
