Justina
Justina would be my name and I am 13 years old. I live in Red Hook with my family. I sing and dance to forget the madness around me. I smile and laugh but that’s just a picture I put up for people to see while on the inside I cry, scream and fight my surroundings. My mother is always there for me, pushing me to do great things with my voice. I see myself as the new version of her and I thank my mommy for that.

Dominick
My name is Dominick and I just recently turned 17 in December. I moved to Brooklyn 5 years ago from California and I was immediately attracted to the environment in Red Hook. I heard about Youth ECHO from a friend and thought it would be a good idea to sign up and help out the community. My favorite hobbies are: Skateboarding, cooking, and kicking it with my homies in the park. I'm overall a nice guy and very motivated to make a change. (Obama Babay!) By the way I love my cute lil dog Munchies! |

That's basically it. Oh yea, living the good ol' gay life.
