The young men and women in IFAGE's Youth Running Club are having conversations that most schools and most households never make space for. About gender. About respect. About what they want their lives and relationships to look like. Those conversations are changing things - quietly, steadily, one session at a time.
Get involved
Come as you are.
Some people come with resources. Some come with skills. Some come with a network, a question, or just a conviction that the way things are is not the way things have to be. All of it has a place here.
