"Children are my passion and I believe that everyone can make a difference in their lives. Our young people are curious, eager to learn, and need the guidance of mentors who care about their development. After all, they are our future and we must someday depend on their leadership. We hope to encourage an environment of dignity, responsibility, and a commitment to treat others as we wish to be treated." - Rosa Parks, 1987 - Commemorating the establishment of the Rosa & Raymond Parks Institute for Self Development
