On June 14, 2012, We'Ced Youth Media presented their first magazine to the public. Their launch celebration showed off the new youth voice of Merced and over 200 people attended.
“Veronica, Veronica... it’s your turn... you’re up next!” I jump with joy and run to the front of the class. It is my turn for show and tell, my favorite part of the week. I describe the silky blonde hair on my blue-eyed Barbie doll.
We are extremely proud to introduce We'Ced Youth Media's first magazine issue, and launch this site, featuring articles from the magazine. Merced and its surrounding areas have always had a vibrant population of young people.
