Redwood Voice is a youth media organization designed to empower youth in Del Norte and Tribal Lands through amplifying their voices using media productions. We believe the first step in changing the narratives of our community is to tell the untold stories and raise the voices that are not heard through traditional communication outlets.
We recognize the importance of meeting youth where they are at, and that in a rural community such as our own, geography and transportation can be a barrier for our young people’s access to opportunities such as this one. In response, we have designed our program to be mobile, expanding our reach to various sites in all communities of Del Norte and Tribal Lands as needed.
Redwood Voice is funded and supported by The California Endowment’s Building Healthy Communities initiative, Humboldt Area Foundation, and Wild Rivers Community Foundation. Our support from the Building Healthy Communities initiative (which supports 14 communities throughout the state of California) gives us the unique opportunity to build partnerships with youth media programs from Del Norte to City Heights, San Diego. This network and support through the California Endowment expands the reach of our publications to communities throughout the entire State of California and beyond.
If you, or your group, class, club, organization, business, etc is interested in receiving any training or support from our organization, please contact us!
