KITS works with foster, system- and justice-impacted, and opportunity youth ages 12-17 and 18-24, using filmmaking as a tool for creativity, confidence, workforce development, and self-expression. After 17 years of serving young people, our reach continues to grow significantly.

In just the past year, KITS produced 9 films and served approximately 80 youth. This year, we have expanded to 18 films serving approximately 180 youth—more than doubling both our film production and the number of young people we are reaching.

This growth reflects the increasing need for creative opportunities and supportive pathways for youth who are often underserved or overlooked.
