ROCK the MIC" is a youth-led podcast from Jewel Human Services’ ROCK Initiative, created by YATVAC, designed to empower young people and support positive youth development. Through guided discussions, mentorship, and hands-on podcasting experience, participants build communication, leadership, and media literacy skills. The program engages youth in producing original content, giving them a platform to share their perspectives while gaining practical skills that support workforce readiness. Outcomes include increased self-confidence, improved teamwork and collaboration, enhanced digital media proficiency, and strengthened civic engagement, preparing participants for success in school, careers, and their communities.
Say hello to a pair of new voices on the ROCK the MIC roster, and more questions about what makes the students tick. With the Artemis II moon mission fresh on the mind, they ask: what's scarier...space, or the ocean?
