YVP Final Project
Documentary● Profile the youth of Dudley/greater Boston and what their stories of struggle/success are● Aiming to speak to four adults, eight youth (ourselves included)● Some preliminary question examples
o Adults: What did you expect to happen after high school, and what actually happened?What got you on track? What got you into the work you do now?
o Youth: What struggles have you had in school? Did you drop out, get your Hi-Set, etc? Didsuccess always seem like an option?
o Both: How does your past affect you? Describe your community in one word. Whatchanges would you like to see?
What does a unified and sustainable environmentlook like, and how can this impact your future
success?
