Rise Up, Debt Down will feature four family friendly, interactive workshops designed to educate, inspire and equip residents with available resources and tools to ensure a fair shot for all of DC. In addition, we are excited to partner with the MLK Feed My Hood Day of Action to provide over 1,000 families with care packages.
