5000 Role Models of Excellence project returns to Capitol Hill

MIAMI ā€“ The 5000 Role Models of Excellence Project is making a return to Capitol Hill for the 53rd Annual Congressional Black Caucus Legislative Conference.

Our cameras were with the young men Thursday morning as they boarded a bus and headed to the airport for their trip to D.C.

Thirty-one Wilson Scholars from the class of 2025 in Miami-Dade County Public Schools chapters will be attending enrichment events hosted by special guests like Rev. Al Sharpton.

U.S. Rep. Frederica Wilson, D-Florida, who founded the program 32 years ago, says the conference is an essential part of the projectā€™s goal in ā€œguiding the boys to manhood.ā€
