MISSION

To provide Twin Cities youth with access to radio and digital media, tools to build community through media justice, and opportunities to amplify voice and leadership.

We provide youth paid training in journalism, storytelling, and media literacy. We use a media justice framework to address the country’s lack of: 

1) Opportunities for young people to access and learn radio broadcasting skills, 

2) Representation of youth - particularly BIPOC, LGBTQ2S, low income, or female youth - in media, and

3) Robust or relevant education on civic engagement and dialogue.

GOALS for our program participants:

1. MEDIA SKILL DEVELOPMENT

2. LEADERSHIP & EMPLOYMENT

3. COMPETITIVE IN HIGHER ED & EMPLOYMENT

4. CRITICAL THINKING

5. COMMUNITY BUILDING
