We’re here to make a difference in the lives of urban youth who would otherwise not have the means to learn about the rapidly evolving world of multimedia, technology and the Internet.

PRIDE PRODUCTIONS, INC. (PPI) A non-profit corporation, was formed in 1994 to highlight the benefits and contributions of our diverse cultural community. PPI's mission is to "empower youth to expand their opportunities for the future using media and technology" in a safe learning environment. The Community Access Technology Center (CATC) and the Multimedia Clubhouse (MMC) both provide a creative and safe after-school learning environment where young people ages 14 to 17 from underserved communities work with adult mentors to explore their own ideas, develop skills, and build confidence in themselves through the use of technology. Both provide youth with access to resources, skills and experiences to help them succeed in their education, contribute to their communities, and lead outstanding lives. In addition, members from both programs work closely with adult mentors, students, and professionals including fields such as art, science, and education who share their experience and serve as role models.

PPI has become a leader in the field of media and technology by creating a learning environment for youth that will teach, educate, and enhance knowledge. We deliver quality services and have received recognition locally and nationally for our innovative programs and collaboration with organizations and educational institutions for the benefit of youth. This is demonstrated by students who have become successful in education, feel a high sense of accomplishment, and have in turn become community leaders and positive role models.

PPI’s goal is to become the leader in innovative technology programs in collaboration with community organizations and educational institutions for the benefit of young adults. PPI has been recognized locally and nationally for its innovative programs and collaborations with organizations and educational institutions for the benefit of the youth.
