Review for Young Men and Women's African Heritage Association, Pittsburgh, PA, USA
The Young Men and Women's African Heritage Association is the best thing happening to me. I was 11 years young when I found this association, or should I say when this association found me. I had absolutely no direction. I thought I had a clue but for some odd reason I kept misplacing it. This place, this haven has taught me in numerous ways not only how to get a clue, but how to draw a map. I am in charge of my life because of the music program that was offered to me. The Young Men and Women's African Heritage Association teaches discipline through skills you may already have. Discipline found through art. Patience and planning that is found in quilting. The job employment and training program is phenomenal. Those programs are few of many. The instructors and employees cared for me. I now care about myself. Programs like these are essential to the community not only for recreation but for growth. I am now 23 years young and will do my best to help others the way I was helped by The Young Men and Women's African Heritage Association.
