À propos de ce contenu audio

 Host Terry Gross talks with people involved with "Youth Portraits," a radio skills training program for ex-offenders released from Riker's Island prison in New York City on this archive edition of Fresh Air. Riker's Island is the biggest jail in North America. "Youth Portraits" is a joint project of Friends of the Island Academy and NPR's "Sound Portraits." First, we hear from Andre Vaughn, a 21-year-old ex-offender who was released from Riker's and became involved with the "Youth Portraits" program. He was caught stealing at the age of 17 and subsequently served three sentences. He now works for Friends of the Island Academy at an outreach program in a Bronx high school. Through "Youth Portraits," Andre was one of five young people who spent eight months working with Sound Portraits to create audio documentaries of their lives. For information, go to www.youthportraits.org and www.soundportraits.org. Terry Gross also speaks with Clinton Lacy, a longtime program director of Friends of the Island Academy. FOIA was founded in 1989 by the first principal of the high school on Riker's Island. The program is designed to break the cycle of return to Riker's by providing education and counseling. Each year, FOIA works with 350 young people. (Original Broadcast Date: February 11, 2002)(P) and ©2003 WHYY-FM
