We have a group of advisors from New Orleans and around the country. We call them the Rethink Elder Circle.
History
In mid-June 2006, twenty middle school children entered
Rethink’s six-week summer program. Primarily African American (although also including Vietnamese, Latino and White youth), we began to call ourselves “Rethinkers.” We stayed together the next school year and recruited new kids for our second summer program in 2007.
In 2008 we’ll start two Rethink Clubs as after school programs in public schools and hold our third summer school.
