Goal is to begin to bridge the digital divide in West Oakland by providing afterschool and summer instruction in digital story telling. In DUSTY's youth programs, participants work with undergraduate mentors and experienced teachers to create their own digital
story. Besides improving writing, they learn to express themselves using sophisticated software including adobe photoshop and premiere. A collaborative between the University of California’s UC Links Program, UC Berkeley’s Graduate School of Education, and the Joseph-Prescott Center for Community Enhancement.
