Thanksgiving is a time when many of us gather with family or friends and sit back to enjoy our time together over a nice meal. Unfortunately, some youth held at the Youth Services Center (1000 Mt. Olivet Road -->immediately north of Trinidad) and at Oak Hill Youth Center won't have family coming to share Thanksgiving Dinner with them. So community members are being invited to serve as surrogate family members for these young people during the meal. If you or someone you know is interested in having lunch with a youth at Youth Services Center or Oak Hill Youth Center, please RSVP to our Volunteer and Program Coordinator, Nkenge Watkins, by Tuesday, November 21, 2006. She can be reached at (202) 576-8396 or nkenge.watkins@dc.gov.
