IRS990/Description0OVER ITS 22 YEARS IN INDIANAPOLIS, FIRST AS A BUREAU OF A NATIONAL ORGANIZATION AND NOW AS AN INDEPENDENT YOUTH-MEDIA ORGANIZATION, Y-PRESS HAS TRAINED OVER 1,700 YOUTH JOURNALISTS, INTERVIEWED THOUSANDS OF YOUNG PEOPLE FOR ARTICLES THAT HAVE APPEARED IN NEWSPAPERS, BOOKS, ON THE INTERNET AND PRODUCED OVER 1,500 PUBLISHED PIECES IN THE INDIANAPOLIS STAR. YOUNG JOURNALISTS, AGES 10 TO 18, HAVE TACKLED EVERYTHING FROM THE HASSLE OF HOMEWORK, TO THE DEBATES OVER THE DEATH PENALTY. Y-PRESS HAS REPORTED ABOUT THE LIMITED RESOURCES SCHOOLS HAVE FOR DEALING WITH MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES, CHEATING AND HOW LACK OF DEFINITION CONFUSES YOUNG PEOPLE AND A STORY ABOUT A WNBA PLAYER'S FOUNDATION AND HER WORK TO IMPROVE THE COMMUNITY. ITS COVERED INTERNATIONAL ISSUES THROUGHOUT THE YEARS TOO - TRAVELING TO KUWAIT, NORTHERN IRELAND, CUBA, HONG KONG AND BENIN, WEST AFRICA. IN 2007, WHAT KIDS CAN DO (WWW.WKCD.ORG), A NATIONAL NONPROFIT THAT SUPPORTS YOUTH VOICE AND ACTION, RECRUITED Y-PRESS TO COVER THE UPCOMING PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION FROM A YOUTH PERSPECTIVE. THE PARTNERSHIP CREATED A DEDICATED "BEAT" FOR 20 Y-PRESS JOURNALISTS, STEEPING THEM IN THE LATEST ELECTION NEWS, RESEARCH AND COVERAGE. IT ALSO ASSURED THEM A SPOT ON WKCD'S WEB SITE, WHICH REACHES A WIDE AUDIENCE, FROM POLICY MAKERS TO YOUTH ORGANIZERS. IN SUBSEQUENT YEARS, THIS PARTNERSHIP HAS CONTINUED AND IN 2009 THE FOCUS WAS A LOOK AT ISSUES-BASED YOUTH ACTIVISM. THIS YEAR, Y-PRESS IDENTIFIED ITS CORE STRENGTH AND WAS ABLE TO DEVELOP AND SHARE IT. WHILE PROMOTING KEY JOURNALISM SKILLS, TEACHERS AND OTHER YOUNG PEOPLE GOT THE IMPORTANCE OF WHAT WAS REALLY BEING TOUTED - CRITICAL THINKING AND ONE OF Y-PRESS'S CORE COMPETENCIES. Y-PRESS DEVELOPED SEVERAL PROJECTS TO SHARE ITS PROCESS. THESE INCLUDED: "CITY STORIES. DURING TWO 10-DAY PROJECTS WITH AREA COMMUNITY CENTERS, Y-PRESS JOURNALISTS TRAINED 7- TO 11-YEAR-OLDS TO PRODUCE AUDIO SLIDESHOWS THAT SHARED THE STORIES OF PEOPLE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. THIS CAN BE VIEWED AT: HTTP://WWW.YPRESS.ORG/NEWS/2011_CITY_STORIES COMPLETED AN ONLINE UNIT OF STUDY FOR TEACHERS TO DEVELOP STUDENTS' ABILITIES TO CREATE DIGITAL PROFILES. "SUBJECT MATTERS. WITH THE COMPLETION OF Y-PRESS'S ONLINE CONTENT DEVELOPMENT TOOL, SUBJECT MATTERS, GENPRX POSTED IT ON THE NATIONAL WEBSITE. IT'S ANOTHER TOOL IN Y-PRESS CACHE AND ALLOWS YOUNG PEOPLE TO SHARE THE JOURNALIST PROCESS FOR DEVELOPING STORY. THIS SPRING, SCHOOL OF INFORMATICS DESIGNER WHO TRANSLATED THE TOOL TO THE WEB, USED THE SAME CONTENT AND DEVELOPED AN APP FOR IPHONES AS HER CAPSTONE PROJECT. IT'S Y-PRESS'S FIRST APP AND THE FIRST IN HER CLASS TO DEVELOP AN APP. SHE IS CURRENTLY CONTRACTING WITH THE SOLUTION CENTER ON A WEB-BASED PROJECT. "POWER-OF-THE-QUESTION : Y-PRESS JOURNALISTS COLLABORATED WITH PROFESSIONAL ADULT REPORTERS AND AREA TEACHERS TO CREATE ONLINE VIDEOS AND TEACHING ACTIVITIES TO HELP YOUNG PEOPLE BECOME MORE ADEPT QUESTIONERS. THE FREE LESSON PLANS AND SUPPORT MATERIALS ARE AVAILABLE AT: (HTTP://WWW.YPRESS.ORG/SPECIAL_PROJECT/POWER_OF_THE_QUESTION). IN THE FALL, Y-PRESS BEGAN A CONVERSATION WITH THE NEWSEUM TO TAKE THE PROJECT NATIONAL.
