2012 Youth News Initiative Stories

August 13, 2012

During the summer of 2012 students in KFAI's Youth News Initiative program produced radio pieces about stories important to them. The topics ranged from stop and frisk policies in Minneapolis to a male perspective on abortion. Students produced their pieces with the help of YNI supervisors Dale Connelly and Emily Krumberger and their individual mentors.

The pieces will be aired on KFAI's news programming in the fall of 2012.
