TRA Quincy YouthBuild Remembers 9/11 by Working on Veterans' Housing

In honor of September 11th Remembrance, TRA Quincy YouthBuild students and staff first participated in a moment of silence organized by the Quincy Fire Department to demonstrate their gratitude for first responders.

Following this ceremony, they worked on the new local veterans’ housing project that is being built on East Howard Street.  This was a great way for the students to show their respect to the service of veterans, many whom served in the wars resulting from the September 11th attacks.  Leading up to the day, time was spent in the classroom teaching and discussing the events of 9/11 with many students who were too young to remember much of that fateful day.
