History: For more than 28 years, VOX ATL has been the place “where teens speak and Atlanta listens.” It started as a newspaper, created by 13 teenagers and 10 adult volunteers.
Did you know: Now, VOX ATL is home to a diverse network of teenagers who publish content online, produce podcasts, videos, opinion pieces, poetry and more. Last year, 95 teens from 46 different schools participated in VOX after-school or summer programs. Programs encourage teen self-expression and teach journalism, audio and video production, and graphic design.
Motto: To lead a youth-voice movement where teens from diverse backgrounds create a stronger, more equitable community through leadership and uncensored self-expression.
How you can help: Financial donations assist VOX ATL in continuing to provide free programming to teenagers in after-school and summer programs. Become a mentor or volunteer by working alongside teenagers in the program. Read and engage with their content online or help spread the word about the organization via social media.
