🚨✨ **A New Voice is Rising... Are You Ready?** 🎥🎙️✨

Welcome to **Iu Mien Voices** — where the next generation of storytellers is stepping into the spotlight! 🌟

Officially launched on July 1, 2026, Iu Mien Voices is a brand-new youth media leadership program created by Iu Mien Community Services to coach and mentor a team of passionate API youth in the art of digital storytelling.

Over the next several months, you’ll get an inside look as our first cohort of 5 amazing youth creators learn to:
📸 Create engaging social media content
🎥 Produce short-form videos
🎙️ Record podcasts and interviews
📱 Build confidence through digital storytelling
💛 Share stories of culture, identity, resilience, and community

The Iu Mien community is one of the largest in the United States, yet our stories are rarely seen or heard. We’re changing that—one story at a time.

This page isn’t just about creating content...
It’s about preserving culture, uplifting youth voices, inspiring future leaders, and showing the world who we are through the eyes of our next generation.

💥 Get ready for:
✨ Storyteller Spotlights
🎬 Behind-the-scenes moments
🎤 Youth-created videos & podcasts
🌏 Culture, traditions, and community stories
💡 Leadership journeys
❤️ Real voices. Real stories. Real impact.

Be part of the movement as these young storytellers discover the power of their voices and inspire others to do the same.

👉 **Follow Iu Mien Voices** and join us from Day One as we amplify voices that deserve to be heard.

🎥 Every voice matters.
💛 Every story has power.
🌱 This is only the beginning.

This project is supported by funding from APIs RISE Fund of the Sacramento Region Community Foundation
