Turn personal stories into powerful voices.

Outside Voices is an educational resource created as an extension of SFGMC’s RHYTHM program. It invites young people to explore their experiences, identities, relationships, and communities through the power of storytelling.

The workbook can be used alongside a RHYTHM school visit or as a standalone resource for students, educators, classrooms, and youth-serving organizations.

Participants are encouraged to transform their stories into creative expression through song, rap, spoken word, monologue, and other forms of performance art.
