Project Daylight: Using Theater to Reduce Trauma in Adolescents

The UMKC School of Social Work is working in conjunction with Project Daylight to conduct a program evaluation. Project Daylight has been working with at-risk youth through theater for a number of years. The program would like to have a full evaluation in order to provide data and outcomes to funding institutions. They would ultimately like to expand their reach and work with as many youth as possible.
