Young People Town Hall Meeting
Jeffery Dowling Ministries presents Young People Town Hall Meeting on September 24, 2:00 p.m.—4:00 p.m. at the Pee Dee United Elks Lodge 832 Timmonsville Hwy., Darlington.
This Town Hall Meeting is for ages 10-18 years old, and is designed with the purpose of mentoring our young males. The meeting allows the young people to allow mentors to be able to talk find out what issues they are dealing with, and really give them a chance to vent.
Parents, it is crucial to allow your kids to come out and be a part of changing our community one child at a time. We have to be the ones to make the effort and get to the bottom of what our young men are dealing with. DJJ, Prison, and SCDC is not the solution.
