Youth Group activities range from brief presentations about
sexual assault, domestic violence and child abuse;
discussions and the development of projects aimed at
increasing community awareness of these social issues AND
to impact the attitudes, values, norms and commonly held
beliefs that support these crimes.
We also encourage youth to contribute to community
taskforce meetings, trainings and conferences. Look at our
website Calendar to search for upcoming engagement
opportunities!Transportation and honorariums for
participation are almost always provided.
In the past, youth have contributed to the development of a 5
minute Promotional Video for local community television on
sexual assault awareness. Participants were involved in every
aspect of the development including storyboard planning,
scripting, conducting photoshoots and recording music and
narration. The project has been made possible through our
partnerships with both YAYA Media and Rosie's Place
(CYS). The PSA aired in September 2007 and was also played
on Comcast, channel 22.
* Young adults over the age of 21 are still invited to get involved and are encouraged to contact PiPE staff for alternative opprotunities to meet and contribute!
