Youth Engagement and Resources
This short film showcases two graduate student community-engaged research projects related to youth and access to resources in the San Joaquin Valley. One is on the experience of collaborating with local youth as they research and produce a comic book about historical inequities in Merced and the other is on the process of cannabis legalization in Merced and an inquiry into whether new tax revenues are being allocated to youth services as intended.
