Jason Taylor Foundation's Epic Student event takes place online!
(Black PR Wire) WESTON, FL -- We at the Jason Taylor Foundation place mission first with each and every action we take.
When it comes to Louder Than A Bomb Florida, mission first means the celebration of youth voice, however this year, the safety and health of our students, educators, volunteers, and Foundation staff has taken precedence over everything else.
In an effort to ensure our students’ stories could still be heard, our annual youth poetry festival was moved entirely to a digital environment. Last week, students representing 32 different schools, ranging from Homestead to Jacksonville, competed in a weeklong series of poetry bouts via video conferencing as their original work was judged by volunteers from all over Florida, Atlanta, Chicago, Maryland, Delaware, California and Jamaica.
Over the next two days, the top 16 high school poetry teams will square off for a chance to take the virtual stage during our LTABFLA Team Finals on Saturday, April 18!
All bouts will be available via Facebook Live at

Log on to support these brave and talented young people!
