We have a new channel, If you can't find it here, try RAWonYR. Youth Radio is an award-winning journalism program and outlet for youth voices! Our mission is to promote young people's intellectual, creative, and professional growth through training and access to all media. Youth Radio is based in the Bay Area, with bureaus in Los Angeles, Washington D.C. and Atlanta, and reporters everywhere in between and around the globe.

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.
