UNITING THE BLACK COMMUNITY THROUGH HELP SERVICES.

1000 Town Center Dr. Suite #300 Oxnard, CA. 93036
Our Work
On Feb. 16th PROJECT50 was contacted by a concerned parent from Cam Heights elementary school in Camarillo, because racial and hateful speech was being used by white students during Black History Month and the concerned parent felt the school/district was not taking it seriously.
On March 7th PROJECT50 and THE LBGTQ+ community brought this to the attention of the public and the district at a open to the public board meeting.
Although we were a key contributor on accountability and change through continued communication via email, attending meetings on implementation, attending meetings with black families, and other organizational platforms, the Pleasant Valley School District superintendent attempted to omit our involvement in her presentation to the board.
Our voice...Our work...Our support for black students will not be silenced by anyone! Click the envelope to open and read a presentation on our involvement.
