BROADCAST TRANSCRIPT
Poverty, food insecurity, and homelessness: these are some of the things many members of the community have to face.
That’s why the Junior league of Tallahassee is kicking off their 8th annual Little Black Dress Initiative. They're working to symbolize they’re aware of the experiences others have to live with.
I talked Little Black Dress Initiative Chair, Cassandra Brown, about how important the initiative is this year.
“We always say addressing the issue because it’s going to take all of us to truly solve the problem, but every little bit helps.”
More than a dozen members came together for the little black dress kick-off Sunday.
