Carlos Laboy, MMCC Theater Specialist, has recruited community Bronx teens and trained them to play the roles that include; news anchors, camera, lighting and a committee who write and directs the show under his direction.
Teen 2 Teen Insider is a news and entertainment program for teens by teens. The following newscast called “Take #1, #2 and #3 provides information and news to teens in a way that's educational as well as entertaining. The focus is young people, inserting the clear informed voices of teens into the adult-dominated media. The teens meet twice a week, from 6:30pm to 7:30pm. If you are a teen and interested in joining the news team, stop by the center or call for more information. The class is free to join. The next show to be called “Take #4” is scheduled to air in April. This class provides an excellent opportunity for valuable exposure in journalism & communication. Enjoy each Take.

This program is designed to allow young people the opportunity to gain volunteer hours for school or college, get job training and experience, and work with children to improve their academic performance. Interns are placed at MMCC after-school sites as volunteer tutors and participate in monthly trainings. Interns participating thus far have been placed at the MMCC Discovery After-School Program, P.S 20 and P.S. 94. Other sites are available. This is a great opportunity to give back to the community, share your talents, and gain valuable job experience.
