EVAC Information

EVAC is a youth-led movement based in Jacksonville, Florida. It began when Black youth at Robert E. Lee High School realized their shared experiences with violence, racism, and the justice system…and desired change. Despite risk factors like homelessness and murdered loved ones, they succeeded beyond our wildest dreams: presenting at the White House, TEDx Talks and Harvard, as well as founding EVAC’s “I am Not a Gang Member” clothing line, to fight racial stereotypes they face. Once labeled “at-risk,” today they share their story to remind others to see them as they are: at-HOPE. To hear their story, watch their Tedx Talk, “At-Risk or At-Hope: How We Label Youth Matters.” To learn more, visit www.EVACmovement.com and @EVACmovement on all social media.
