STRATEGIC ARTS & EDUCATION INITIATIVEThe mission of the SAE initiative is to provide artistic literacy, professional development, and capacity building trainings and workshops to new and existing community-based artists (specifically those that have justice-involvement), young adults, students, advocates, teaching artists, practitioners, legal advocates, and organizations who want to learn more about entrepreneurship, community enhancement and/or how they can use the arts to mitigate the imprint of the criminal legal system.

SERVICE LEARNING INITIATIVEThe Community Service Learning (CSL) initiative introduces youth and young adults ages 16-24 from the Summer Youth Employment Program (SYEP) to community service and mobile media skills by fostering community engagement and documentary research opportunities. Throughout the six-week employment phase, participants will be taught the skills and techniques of documentary filmmaking while gaining the hands-on experience needed to produce a short film about their summer experience working in East Harlem.
