Youth Radio is a non-profit media training program and an independent producer of youth voices based in California.

Currently one of our students, Melanie, is corresponding with an Afghan refugee in Pakistan. But we’re also really interested in getting the first person voices of both Israeli and Palestinian teens and the type of essays we would want them to do would be short pieces, maybe a page, about whatever topic they wanted to write about that describes their life.

I was wondering if you could help me get in touch with some teenagers there who might be willing to share some of their lives with us…

So, I’m writing to invite your suggestions on the best way to get in touch with these teens as soon as possible.

if there are any teenagers that you know there who would be interested, please let me know how we could make contact (they would be paid if the commentaries get published.) we’d like to start by developing a phone relationship with them.

You can visit our website to see samples of our students’ writings, poetry, and art at http://www.youthradio.org.
