Multimedia Resources and Training Institute (MMRTI)

MMRTI's Digital Storytelling in the Time of COVID-19 (DSTC-19) project will engage eight youth interns and a variety of professional instructors to capture and document the local COVID-19 pandemic experience in the form of a one-hour documentary featuring stories from local underserved and underrepresented communities in the African American, Asian American and East African immigrant and refugee community. In addition, we will broaden the conversation through facilitated panel discussions where community members will be able to share their own stories and make connections with one another. The project will be completed by June of 2022.
