The Motivational Edge at the Florida Juvenile Justice Association Annual Retreat 

August, 2024

This August, The Motivational Edge had the honor of participating in the Florida Juvenile Justice Association (FJJA) Annual Retreat in Orlando, where we connected with key legislators, elected officials, and fellow advocates dedicated to improving the lives of at-risk youth.

A highlight of the event was presenting Canvas Awards—beautiful, hand-crafted pieces created by our talented youth—to legislators and officials. These unique artworks served as a powerful reminder of the potential within every young person when given the right support and opportunities.

As a proud member and partner of the Florida Juvenile Justice Association, The Motivational Edge remains committed to empowering youth through creative expression, education, and mentorship. Events like this reinforce the importance of collaboration in shaping a brighter future for Florida’s youth.
