Matt's Message:
“Young people need to feel empowered in their schools and communities.  It is not enough to ask them to stay away from drugs and alcohol, we need to show them there are positive things they can do for themselves and others.  They must all be leaders in their lives.”

Philadelphia Inquirer, 2006
