Challenge

Youth ages 9-18 from throughout Seattle participate in the program; we primarily work with partner agencies such as Boys & Girls Clubs, Parks & Recreation Departments, alternative schools, and YMCAs to serve youth who are looking for a creative outlet to have their voice heard.

Solution

Afterschool workshops that are in 7-week series or semester long classes; week long intensive camps during school breaks and summer; all programs teach the ins and outs of video production and editing, story development.

Long-Term Impact

Youth will gain video production skills that will provide them with marketable skills for the workplace, will gain heightened self-esteem, will learn how to work collaboratively and on a team, and will learn how to make their voice heard.
