in the Richmond Educational Community
With the ever-expanding exposure to social media and evidence of increased stress in people of all age groups, it has become increasingly important to give young people opportunities to connect with themselves in a deeper way and to support students in finding their voice.
For over 10 years, Podium has provided safer and more supportive educational environments for students in Richmond, VA, and surrounding areas. By creating opportunities for young people to develop essential writing and communication skills, Podium aims to increase youth confidence and engagement, while supporting students in defining their own avenues for success.
There are many ways to get involved with Podium.
Our youth programs are the foundation of what we do. If you’re a Richmond-area student who would like to learn more about us, or participate in our programs, we would love to hear from you!
