The Louisiana Center for Health Equity (LCHE), along with the Together We Are More Adolescent Health Collaborative, has announced the 7th year of hosting the annual Youth Peace Olympics (YPO). The YPO Opening Ceremony will begin promptly at 11 a.m. on Saturday, May 30, via Zoom on any smart device or computer. 

Everyone is invited to enjoy free musical performances and other entertainment. Michael A.V. Mitchell will host this family-friendly online event. A.V. is a mogul in the making, dream coach, entrepreneur, author, artist, and highly sought after motivational speaker. Speaking to small and large audiences, A.V. “shares his story of vision, faith, and determination in a real way.” Joining A.V., among others, is local Christian and Gospel rap artist, Carlos Vaughn, formally known as, “Thug Addict.” Led by the Spirit of God, he became a new creature and now goes by his first and middle name, “Carlos Vaughn.” As founder and CEO of Christlike Music and Ministries, LLC, he is seeking to reach the youth population of the urban community to begin the process of changing mindsets.
