Welcome to Youth Aloud, a youth-led podcast at The Practice Space!

The voices of young people are often underrepresented in important conversations and have valuable perspectives on issues related to education, youth identity, and current events. Since 2017, The Practice Space has brought together small groups of high school and college students to produce engaging and thoughtful content on the inner thoughts and experiences of young people. It also serves as another outlet for students to practice and present their public speaking skills!

As part of our podcast team, students learn how to produce and host episodes, conduct interviews as field reporters, promote their work on social media, and record stories on issues that they select.

Do you remember the first time you ever expressed yourself through public speaking or told a story about your life? In this episode, you will hear participants in our Young Speakers Camp do just that. For many of them, participating in this program was the first opportunity they get to practice the skills of communication and storytelling in a safe space that builds their confidence. Stories shared include: first steps taken, trying new things, being helpful, biggest fears, and learning from mistakes.
