powered by youth. driven by purpose.

The Sound Reengagement Collaborative’s (SRC) Research Fellowship launched this Fall of 2025 with our first cohort. Fellows are representatives of various commiunity partners and programs across our region that serve Opportunity Youth and Adult Learners.

Through the Research Fellowship, the cohort will design and conduct a youth-led qualitative research project to uncover ways in which service providers and the Sound Reengagement Collaborative as a whole can improve our program services to best support youth. Fellows will gather insights from their peers to identify barriers they face, illuminate what’s not working in programs, and develop program improvement strategies that will benefit SRC program participants.

In addition to the research, fellows will participate in monthly SRC meetings and trainings that support their professional, leadership, and identity development.
