About YWAP
We believe that all children are gifted, on both sides of the womb. bWe exist to identify, nurture, protect and empower young people to use their gifts to become the world changers that God meant them to be.
Mission
We give inner-city children the emotional and social skills to overcome poverty and violence.
Our Vision
In partnering with the education and media community, we will reinforce the study skills needed to attain satisfactory levels of achievement while providing the life skills needed to overcome obstacles to learning.
Our program will be delivered to students of all ages through interactive presentations via the radio, television, the internet, newsprint and assembly style format in schools, churches and community centers.
Through positive peer influence, we will empower young people and mobilize them to work with adults and involve them in the process of social change.
We will show young people how they are targets of the media and advertising agencies and how they are viewed as consumers and not young people.
We will gather a core group of young people ages 8-24 who will serve as co-hosts for radio and television interviews with other young people. These interviews will include but not be limited to discussions on drugs and alcohol, bullying, sexuality, peer influence, media manipulation and victims of violence.
Our long term goal is to start a 24-7-365 positive radio station for young people in Buffalo, New York that will reach the world.
