Program areas at Change the Ref

Change the Ref (ctr), was formed to empower our future leaders. Ctr gives the kids of today the tools they need to be empowered to make changes to critical issues that affect our nation, through education, conversation, and activism. It uses urban art and nonviolent creative confrontation to expose the disastrous effects of the mass shooting pandemic. It also brings focus to the nra's corrupt maneuvers to buy lawmakers, while forcing solutions which are essential to healing mass shooting victims' families' lifelong grief. Change the Ref's ultimate goal is to give the young generation of survivors and victims a disrupting voice to help lead the way to Change for a more peaceful future.
