MNN Youth Channel is a division of Manhattan Neighborhood Network (MNN) serving young people below the age of 25. Established in 2000, MNN Youth Channel aims to give youth, of all backgrounds, the opportunity to create community media, foster dialogue, and engage in social change.
We provide services through training and hands-on experience in all aspects of community television production. We offer free media awareness workshops, off-site multi-week trainings, internships, summer youth video programs, in-house productions, special events, and studio tours.
YC programs 20 hours of youth-produced media per week on MNN4, reaching up to 9 million viewers. By nurturing free speech and diverse voices, MNN Youth Channel hopes to empower young people to become active participants in creating media that will have lasting impacts in their communities.
