Breaking The Cycle Mentor Program

Brionna Greer an Owensboro High School grad and recent  grad of Kentucky State University has been a light for the youth in our community. The summer of 2019 was a violent one in Owensboro’s west end. Although the violence was not necessarily new, things intensified within the younger crowd. A summer that should have been pool parties and bonfires quickly escalated into shootings, which left the community shaken. West End residents could feel the tension, and it was clear that teenagers needed guidance. As a native to the part of town most heavily affected, Brionna Greer, wanted to spark change.
