Through community workshops, RadioActive serves nearly 900 young people a year at more than 25 schools and community organizations. In these short-term programs, youth discover public radio journalism, learn basic radio storytelling skills, and share their voice.

Each year, RadioActive offers a limited number of free pop-up radio workshops to youth-serving community organizations. We prioritize working with communities without ready access to media platforms and/or who are underserved by high quality arts programs. Pop-up workshops last anywhere from a day to a week and allow us the opportunity to serve youth from a specific community. In pop-up workshops, youth learn how to record and edit audio, write and voice scripts, and produce their own short audio stories, mentored by radio professionals and RadioActive advanced youth producers.
