South Shore QLP Lead Steward Tewodros Josef aka “Coach Crawford" sits down with Levante Stewart, founder of Lost Boyz Inc., to unpack why a collaborative, values-aligned approach is essential for community change in a fractured national climate. Stewart names ego as the biggest barrier to true collaboration and lifts up humility, shared focus, and shared values as the core ingredients. He breaks down youth development—and specifically sports-based youth development—as a practical path to build resilience, emotional intelligence, and public safety, drawing on his own journey (including programming he started while incarcerated) and its measurable impact. Stewart calls South Shore residents to get off the sidelines and engage, then candidly addresses current funding challenges threatening the work and what it will take to sustain it.
