H.O.L.L.A

The history of H.O.L.L.A! (How Our Lives Link Altogether) stands on experiential roots and wisdom from living, working, surviving, and being educated in poor urban communities in New York.

Terrell joined during the second organizational birth, outside of prison, and implemented community based programming..

H.O.L.L.A! programs a love that is communicated to youth from overlooked communities by reaching out to middle and high schools, churches, detention centers, and people we meet in our neighborhoods.

How Our Lives Link Altogether creates pathways and spaces for healthy cultural, social, and political development for youth of color. We are committed to working for a world where young people from historically oppressed communities are engaged in movements for collective liberation and healing.
