What Empower You Edutainment Offers the Community
Empower You Edutainment (EYE) offers the Riverside and Moreno Valley communities innovative programs that fuse the arts, education, and wellness to uplift underserved youth and families. Through theater, music, dance, storytelling, and film, we create safe spaces where young people—primarily African American and Latino youth from low-income households—develop confidence, resilience, and cultural pride.
E.Y.E provides:
Culturally responsive arts programs in schools and community spaces that integrate history, storytelling, and performance.
Trauma-informed wellness programs such as Healing Circles, psychoeducation workshops, and therapy encounters with licensed clinicians.
Youth leadership development, training adolescents to serve as peer navigators and community leaders.
Community theater productions that spark dialogue on issues like race, health, and justice, while offering intergenerational healing and empowerment.
Civic engagement opportunities that connect youth and families to advocacy, history, and cultural pride, ensuring their voices are heard in local decision-making.
Through these efforts, EYE bridges critical gaps in both the arts and health systems, bringing healing, belonging, and empowerment to communities often overlooked by traditional services.
