Distributed by Public Radio International. Youth Radio reporters for NPR follow elections, education, youth trends and youth experiences. Our goal is to inform and educate youth about issues that affect us. Each week our outreach coordinator, accompanied by a peer trainer, brings a portable DJ setup and tape machines into Camp Sweeney and together they teach music mixing and tape recording, and commentary writing. Last fall, Youth Radio launched the National Network, a series of partnerships with local stations and youth agencies throughout the nation.
Local stations offer studios to local students to record their material.
