We had a blast!! Thank you for having us, Governor Jeff Landry’s Office of Programs and Planning join the 2025 Louisiana Youth for Excellence (LYFE) State Conference, a statewide initiative dedicated to empowering Louisiana youth through education, leadership, and community engagement. Hosted under the Office of Governor Jeff Landry, Louisiana Youth for Excellence “LYFE” provides young people across the state with the tools and encouragement to make positive, informed choices for their futures.
We’re especially grateful to LYFE Executive Director, Dr. Amanda M. Shackelford, and her team for their ongoing support of The TMM Project and our efforts to merge the performing arts with youth empowerment initiatives. This summer, LYFE proudly stood with us as we presented our Stay HYPE Award to the Baton Rouge Center for Visual and Performing Arts (BRCVPA) for the successful launch of their new school campus, a moment that continues to inspire our mission to bridge artistry, education, and purpose. And a huge congratulations to BRCVPA for officially cutting the ribbon this past week on their brand-new building! We’re so proud to see this milestone come to life and can’t wait to watch their students continue to thrive in such a vibrant new space.
