22) to tour Resource Center and Prism Health North Texas facilities. Levine is U.S. Assistant Secretary of Health. About her choice of destinations, Levine said she was visiting locations, “where our community has a lot of challenges.” Her morning began at Resource Center where CEO Cece Cox gave her a tour of the center and she met with staff. “Youth are so vulnerable,” Levine said as she entered the space used by Youth First. “Having a safe space is so important.” She commented on how a safe space may be provided by a teacher, a counselor or other professional and may prevent the need for future mental health services.

When Cox asked Levine, “How do you think our youth are doing?” she answered, “Things will get better. I believe that.” After discussing Youth First activities, Levine commented, “Sometimes you make a difference and don’t know it,” and added, “Positive energy changes the world.” She called the Youth First space “warm and inviting.” As she toured the building, Levine commented on the art hanging throughout and said, “art can inspire” and called the works “healing.” Next stop was Prism Health’s Oak Cliff facilities, the organization’s busiest.

Prism CEO John Carlo led the tour of the medical office, the pharmacy and drug trial office. He touted the variety of HIV studies going on at Prism and the diversity of patients participating including various races, sex and age.
