L.A. Leadership Academy - Student Work
Carla Ruelas Mural
With Youth Voices, students explore their own neighborhoods and generate various media assets to help tell the story of where they live in relation to who they are. We call this the My Neighborhood & Me Project. The students then work in groups to help research and produce multimedia content with the Departures team, building on their acquired production skills from the first project.
