Find your people. Find your place. đź’™

At NCCJ, young people build leadership skills, challenge themselves, learn from one another, and create community with people who may see the world differently than they do.

Anytown is just the beginning. Through our Youth Ambassador Program, young people have opportunities to keep learning, leading, building relationships, and making an impact in their communities all year long.

It takes a pretty incredible team to do this work. đź’™

Last week, our NCCJ contract facilitators came together for our annual kickoff, a chance to reconnect, prepare for the year ahead, and spend some time learning together.

These are some of the people who help bring NCCJ programs to life throughout our community. They facilitate meaningful conversations, build spaces where people can learn from one another, and bring so much experience, care, and heart to every room they enter.

We’re lucky to have them on Team NCCJ, and we’re excited for another year together.

Last week, we welcomed a new group to ACRE, the Alamance County Racial Equity Collaborative.

ACRE is a 12-week program that runs from August through December, bringing together people from across Alamance County to learn, build relationships, and deepen their understanding of the history and experiences that have shaped their community.

Over the next several months, this cohort will learn from local leaders and community members, explore Alamance County’s history, engage in meaningful conversations, and consider how each of us can help build a more equitable community.

We’re excited to spend the next 12 weeks learning alongside this group.

Thank you to Impact Alamance for their continued partnership and support of ACRE.

"Home is the freedom to be who you are. And for that to be okay and welcomed.” - Kathryn Hubert, Owner/Chef at Chez Genèse, Downtown Greensboro.

There's No Place Like Home: Community Means Everyone.

Home is the theme for our 60th Annual Citation Award Dinner on November 12.

Last week, we started filming for the dinner when we will honor Kathyrn Hubert as NCCJ's first Rising Changemaker. We are so excited to celebrate her contributions, and also honor the lifetime achievements of Joyce Hobson Johnson (The Beloved Community Center) and Mitchel Sommers (former Executive Director of the Community Theatre of Greensboro).

We hope you can join us on November 12 as we celebrate community. *Link for more information in comments*

A little camera clean-up, and a whole lot of Anytown energy. đź’™

We kicked off the 2026–27 Youth Ambassador Program with our first gathering of the school year! The Ambassador Program gives Anytown alumni a way to stay connected after camp through leadership, service, civic engagement, and, of course, plenty of time just being together.

If you’re a high school student who has attended Anytown, the Youth Ambassador Program is for you! There’s no application and no requirement to attend every meeting. Join us whenever you can.

We’ll be meeting throughout the school year, so Anytown families, keep an eye on your email and texts for upcoming dates and opportunities.

Anytown may only last a week. The community lasts a whole lot longer. đź’™
