Season 4 of From the Source is in the works!

For our new season, we’re amplifying youth voices. We’re looking for teens ages 13-18 to speak on issues that ignite their passion and discuss topics they feel are most influential in shaping youth culture. We welcome complex and nuanced perspectives on issues ranging from religion and climate change to school safety and civic leadership. Do you know someone who fits this description?

Contact PublicSource Senior Community Correspondent Jourdan Hicks at [email protected].

More topics of interest include: dating, politics, entrepreneurship, higher education, social media influence, identity (LGBTQ, race, gender, class), self-fulfillment, money and Pittsburgh culture. We're open to hearing what's on your mind, too!
