Through our free, after-school and summer Creative Arts and Hip Hop Culture Sessions TRUE Skool provides a fun, space for participants ages 14-19 who seek to advance their knowledge in community building, social justice and 'how to' creatively address challenges in our world. Youth and participants will raise their creative voices about important topics such as:

​

• Empowering teens and young adults

• Racial injustices and disparities in economics, education, and juvenile systems.

Through our wide range of after-school and summer activities, such as community service projects, art, music/media and dance classes, developing workshops to peer educate, and business classes, youth become the experts on these topics and develop creative responses and solutions on their path to leadership and success!.
