The Cleveland Job Corps Center celebrated the Life of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. by attending the Cleveland Chapter of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference's Eleventh Annual Dr. Martin Luther King Jr Gala, January 13. The theme was "Anchors for Life's Journey: Salvation, Education, Activism." The Student Ambassadors were able to meet Rev. Dr. E. Theophilus Caviness, President of SCLC and Pastor and Rev Hilton O. Smith, Vice President of SCLC. The Keynote speaker for the evening was City of Warrensville Hts. Mayor and former Ohio State and NBA Basketball player, Brad Sellers. Mayor Sellers said that it was time to change the conditions we live in by making a difference in our communities.

Forty Student Ambassadors volunteered at the Masonic Auditorium for the 2012 Homeless StandDown. The over 800 veterans and homeless people at this event enjoyed haircuts, medical screening, service providers, and free winter clothing.

The mission of the Cleveland Job Corps Center is preparing our students for leadership, and having an impact in their neighborhoods. History books are full of examples of what youth have the potential to accomplish. Our collective future depends on it. The legacy continues...CJCC  Student Ambassadors.
