YWCA Washington State University

My name is Mikeya Jackson-Harper and I am a Junior at Washington State University who is majoring in Sociology and Digital Technology and Culture. This is my first time attending the YWCA National Conference USA in Washington, D.C. It was an amazing experience. I learned about the political and advocacy process regarding non-profit management. This information and experience was beneficial to my learning experience a s a future educator and a student who has interest in social work who plans to incorporate spoken word, poetry and hip hop within social justice curricula as an advocate for youth and families.
