How it Started...  

The Youth Media Advocacy Project (YMAP) started in January 2010. In the first six months of the project, high school students:

  • Produced a video about education issues and the characteristics of effective teachers, to be aired on community cable TV

  • Wrote and recorded a radio ad about negative stereotypes of teenagers, which is airing on a local popular FM music station

  • Created print ad concepts about education which are being placed on billboards and in newspapers

  • Met with leaders in education and in the media, presented their ideas, and toured radio and TV stations
