Seattle - Department of Education Youth Listening Tour
In just over 2 weeks, young people made a video in answer to the questions posed by the Department of Education Listening Tour.

They were able to make a 5 minute video that represented diverse viewpoints and expressed some of the struggles of many young people today in taking that next step.
