Second annual S.A.F.E. S.P.A.C.E event held

Special to The Clinton Courier

Director, author and screenwriter Felicia Kelly-Brookins recently led the second S.A.F.E. S.P.A.C.E. (Supportive-Accepting-Fearless-Empowering Sharing -Progress-Awareness-Community-Empathy) event at the Quisenberry Library, empowering teens and youth with discussions on cyberbullying, mental health, substance abuse, domestic violence and nutrition. S.A.F.E. S.P.A.C.E. is designed to create a nurturing environment for youth and teens to explore mental health challenges and solutions through the arts. The event draws its foundation from the Kwanzaa principle of Ujima, emphasizing collective work and responsibility—a reminder that the well-being of children is a shared mission. The event featured spoken word performances and a powerful theater skit addressing teen mental health and domestic violence.
