Notes for Hope

On September 11, 2009, NCCJ observed 9/11 with the leadership class at Southwest Guilford High School. Led by ANYTOWN graduates and NCCJ staff, the Notes for Hope program allowed students to reframe the day from one of anger over the terrorist attacks into a day that citizens work to promote fundamental principles of our society -- liberty and justice for all. Notes for Hope helps students to become leaders of creating understanding and unity both locally and internationally.

This poignant program attracted wide media interest. Click on the following links to see how the program was covered by:
