NAACP Seeks Young Adult Leaders from the New Pittsburgh Courier
"On Feb. 28 as part of a two-day Black History Month celebration, the Pittsburgh Unit of the NAACP hosted a networking mixer at the Savoy Restaurant in the Strip District. The event, which also featured an art auction, is part of the NAACP’s latest effort to increase membership and attract younger members. “It’s about bridging the gap. All the beautiful artwork here, the young people did that,” said NAACP President Connie Parker. “We intend to change the face of the NAACP, bring the young people in, so then we’re alive again. I think we’re moving in the right
direction.”"
