DESCRIPTION:Rev. Mwangi Mukami will share his philosophy of accompaniment, rooted in 
 his lived experience, public service, and leadership through MLIFE 
 Foundation. He will explore how walking alongside youth and historically 
 excluded people can create pathways to healing, dignity, leadership, and 
 self-determination.\n\nMwangi Mukami arrived in the U.S. in 2009, an asylee 
 from political violence and persecution based on his sexuality in his 
 native Kenya. Born in Kawangware, an impoverished neighborhood six miles 
 west of Nairobi, Kenya’s capital, Mwangi grew up in a 10-by-12-foot room 
 with his single mother and seven siblings. At 17, he joined the 
 Children’s Cabinet of Kenya and was elected its president in 2003. He 
 later served as founder and president of the National Youth Parliament of 
 Kenya in 2004 and as Executive Director of the Martin Luther King, Jr. 
 Africa Foundation. Mwangi worked as a supervisor for SF’s Episcopal 
 Sanctuary and Next Door Shelters, and later Chairman of the Shelter 
 Monitoring Committee, overseeing 23 homeless service providers across the 
 city. In 2017, he founded the U.S. arm of MLIFE Foundation in SF, which 
 operates two programs: Meal2Lead, which serves youth ages 14 to 24, 
 including youth who are justice-involved or struggling academically; and 
 the Healing Circle Program, which provides wraparound services for people 
 returning from California’s prison system.\n
