Please see the FY22 Community Eligibility Announcement:
PMP is an intensive, six-month, out-of-school activity that uses theatre as a catalyst to help youth learn valuable life skills that will aid them in developing positive self-images. Over the course of the program teens are enabled to create an original performance piece based on their own stories in a safe and confidential environment where they can express themselves, can develop conflict/resolution skills and together can create a supportive community.
