LIVE PRODUCTION TRAINING
AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM
Street Corner Resources, World Cast Live, and Bomb Promotions
Works Together to launch The Live Production Training
After School Program. This program introduces Young People to Media Management, Film Production, Podcast Set Up and other media management to keep them away from gun and gang violence. Thus far it has been a great start to the after-school program in Live Production training.
Teaching teenagers is a challenging task but a fulfilling one as we strongly believe we have the right team and partners to get the job done the in a thoughtful and effective manner. Molding future minds and giving opportunities to the younger kids is a strong focus for the team
With access to 15,000 students at Barclays Center on the October 24th, this initiative will become a unique and phenomenal opportunity to partner with Worldcast Inc. to teach the kids how to produce their own stream while gaming so they learn production, lighting and audio setup.
This joint venture permits us to provide a gateway for hundreds if not thousands of young people to start their own business ventures built on key skills grounded in the trade.
The initial sessions have been enlightening, thought-provoking, and participatory. It has kept the young people participating, interested, engaged and away from guns and gang violence.

In an effort to curb violence, 138 New York City public schools are partnering with community-based organizations for more resources and student support. The idea is to use trusted community members as violence interrupters across the city.
In Harlem, Street Corner Resources’ violence interrupters canvas the streets around the local schools, making connections with students at the end of their school day and teaching young people techniques on how to de-escalate fights.
Street Corner Resources headed by Iesha Sekou attempts to give young people a sense of belonging, from mental health counseling in the “Peace Beast RV” to employing 62 young people in an effort to curb violence in Harlem.
Street Corner Resources is just one of 140 community-based organizations working with the Department of Education on Project Pivot. The $9 million program supports 138 New York City public schools across the five boroughs.
The schools are selected based on violent incidents, absenteeism and suspensions among students. The goal is to counsel kids so they can feel safe going to and from school.
Sekou believes the engagement is working, but there is more work to be done in the community.
According to the NYPD’s 32nd precinct in Harlem, while murders are down 46% from this time last year, rapes are up by 29%, robberies are up by 36% and assaults have remained the same at nearly 400 this year.
The Live Production Training
After School Program offers the young people of the community an alternative to the streets, one that gives them hands-on practical education in skills that can launch their own businesses and encourage emotional and financial empowerment.
The program features over 40 career paths!!!
