HarlemLive is an after school journalism program with the mission to empower a diverse group of youth to become informed consumers and producers of new media.
An award winning, critically acclaimed web magazine produced by teens from throughout New York City. It is a journalism, technology and leadership program that teaches students ages 13 to 21 how to run an online newspaper. The publication, "HarlemLive" (www.harlemlive.org), includes news articles, investigative stories, opinion pieces, personal essays, poetry, photography and video documentaries. The students organize events, conduct workshops and sit on panels, increasing their networking and public speaking abilities. The program is located on 123rd Street in Manhattan, the heart of Harlem's commercial district.
HarlemLive, a nonprofit 501c3 organization, was created in 1996 by a former New York City public school teacher, Richard Calton. He was responding to a need: With dwindling funding for high school newspapers, fewer teenagers in low-income neighborhoods were being exposed to journalism at an age when they might become interested and motivated to consider communications a career goal.
