Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor Fred Waterer, who shares this article about Australia’s first rehabilitative radio station for youth in detention, Futures, from Branding in Asia:
Musicians Making a Difference (MMAD), in partnership with creative studio Supermassive and Youth Justice NSW, has launched Futures–an audio-based rehabilitative program presented as a hip hop radio station. Designed to help young people in juvenile detention find their voices through music, storytelling, and mentorship, Futures offers 24/7 programming aimed at empowerment and self-expression. Following a successful pilot, the initiative is set to expand across Australia.
