The Richmond Youth Media Program (RYMP) is a free referral-based program for youth (ages 13-24), presented in partnership with the City of Richmond, and supported by the Vancouver Coastal Health SMART Fund.

RYMP participants learn media arts skills through weekly skill sessions, and group projects. RYMP staff aim to create a supportive environment for this learning, and help youth to use these skills to build community connections.

Anyone can make a referral to this low-barrier program, including youth themselves. The referral form is available at www.richmond.ca/RYMP.

For more information, you can contact RYMP staff by email medialab@richmond.ca or phone 604-247-8303.
