About [Edit]
Youth Radio promotes young people`s intellectual, creative, and professional growth through training and access to media.
Through hands-on practice, working relationships with industry professionals, and production of award-winning programming, Youth Radio students learn the basics of broadcasting. In the process, they`re exposed to a broad spectrum of media-related careers.
But technical training is only part of the picture. Through their journalism education, Youth Radio students also strengthen their foundation in basic "life-skills": verbal expression, writing, computer technology, critical thinking, conflict resolution, and more.
What about life-after-Youth Radio? Graduates emerge with a new confidence and hope for creating a positive professional future for themselves, and with concrete skills and contacts to get them there.
Youth Radio contributes to the empowerment of teenagers by giving them tools they`ll need for success. We also bring youth perspectives to the airwaves, shedding light on the concerns and interests of our young people.
