VOICES is a Tucson nonprofit that works with youth ages 14 to 21 in after-school and summer programs, mentoring them in the documentary arts. Established in 1999, our mission is to provide young people with a safe space, positive relationships and skills training to tell real-life stories. We also find platforms to share their stories with the world because we believe stories are an agent of change.
