This Colorado Gives Day, your gift of any amount will help us disrupt the school-to-prison pipeline through the power of theatre.
Mirror Image Arts is disrupting the school-to-prison pipeline through interactive theatre programs that develop social-emotional skills and build trusted relationships with youth. Research shows that trusted adult and developmental relationships are linked to significantly higher social-emotional skill (SES) development levels.
Our programming works with and for young people in schools and juvenile legal centers. We work to build moments where social-emotional growth can happen and where young people can express themselves and their emotions through creativity, imagination, problem-solving, and play. Our methodology offers a space where young people can process the challenges they experience and work toward solutions. Youth can explore who they are and want to be and can practice being that person – being ready for real-life.
Together, we disrupt the school-to-prison pipeline and help young people RECLAIM for themselves the rights, opportunities, privileges, and possibilities that others have denied them.
Thank you for your generosity.
