Youth violence has been such a big topic in the news. Corey D. James is the founder and CEO of Painting Pictures Inc., a nonprofit organization dedicated to making an impact in the lives of disadvantaged youth. He has devoted his life and career to directly serving at-risk youth in urban communities as a youth mentor, group facilitator and motivational speaker.
