Have you been driving around the ever-congested streets of Pittsburgh and noticed something new? Hear Me billboards are up!
Our billboard campaign consists of 50 billboards, spread through a 6 county region in Southwestern Pennsylvania. Over half of these billboards showcase the voices of kids from all over the region, speaking up about issues that are important to them. In addition to excerpts from their stories, you can find the web address to hear the complete story and find out where other billboards are located.
The kids represented on these billboards have participated in a Hear Me event during the pilot year (June 2010 to June 2011). Their testimonias are incredibly powerful. Hopefully, seeing these stories will give you something to look out when you're stuck in the summer construction and something to think about all day long!
