Acting with Yvette R.

The Shobizconnection

In 2005, I was introduced to a well-known organization that works with At-Risk-Youth. I've always wanted to work with this population due to my own past as a creative child with nowhere to be creative. After working with these talented children, I decided to form my own non-profit organization and teach behavior-modification through acting as a way to give back to the community. That's when I founded, SILENCE THE TEARS. We go out and encourage young people to believe in their dreams and to let no one or anything stop them from being their very best, no matter what career path they decide to take. This is all done through acting classes and building confidence in students who rarely have a chance to excel in life.
