MY HERO provides free curricula, hero-themed media and support to thousands of teachers while also teaching media-arts techniques to those in underrepresented communities. Students of all ages use its digital story-telling tools and contribute their own socially conscious essays, art, music and films to MY HERO’s ever-growing multi-media archive at www.myhero.com

The CENTER FOR EDUCATIONAL JUSTICE is the home to twelve nonprofit partners, selected by New Visions, who share the communal goal of providing educational programming for at-risk youth in Los Angeles. For more information, please visit http://myhero.com/CEJ
