Stephanie Victorin , age 13 & Jesse Inoa, age 12 - both students at IS 218
In the Inwood section of Manhattan, New York where I live it's a safe place and my neighborhood is fun to live in.
My block is like a family. We protect each other from violence. I know everyone on my block.
I also go to JP Morgan on 60 Wall St, I go because I'm in a mentoring program.

Hi my name is Jesse Inoa. I live in Inwood Manhattan. Where I live is gentle block. People get along,
there are no arguments, no violence and a lot of peace. Like my friend Stephanie said, I also go to Project Live.
I also have a lot of friends on my block. My block has a program called P A L in the summer. That program is fun
because the people that work there close the streets so the cars won't pass and they put out games. We can play
any game we want. Also my favorite sport is basketball. Before you play you have to sign up before you can play.
