The mission of the Alaska Teen Media Institute is to provide teens with the tools and training needed to produce stories and with the opportunity for their stories - told in their own voices - to be shared through a variety of media. ATMI believes the teen perspective is valuable and under-represented. The Alaska Teen Media Institute is a program under the umbrella of Spirit of Youth, 501 (c)(3).

Before Covid-19 was declared a pandemic, ATMI producer Ryan Danigole's father got a job out of state and the whole family was set to move to Albany, New York. Now that we are in the midst of a pandemic, the Danigole family is still planning to move this summer.
Ryan sat down with his parents to talk about the prospect of moving across the country during a pandemic, anxieties about being so close to the epicenter of cases in the U.S., and their hopes for the future.
