Yolanda Leon wins a NY Women's Foundation Neighborhood Leadership Award

On November 6, Yolanda Leon, Co-founder of the Jackson Heights Humanist Neighborhood Center, received a Neighborhood Leadership Award from the New York Women's Foundation. The New York Women's Foundation is "a cross-cultural alliance of women helping low-income women and girls in the five boroughs to achieve sustained economic security through expanded opportunities." Introducing Yolanda and other members of the Humanist Center of Cultures, the foundation remarked "in fact they live their mission."

We have videos of the event available for viewing on the DiverseCity web site.
