They travelled to Nashville to meet with the Meharry-State Farm Alliance team and beef up their knowledge about seat belts, roadway safety, and lobbying activity. That’s right: lobbying activity. High school students by day, radio and recording artists by night, these teens are students at the High School for Recording Arts in Minneapolis. Their partnership with the Alliance integrates their high school studies with their favorite public health issue, seat belt safety, and the result has been full-throttle campaigning for primary enforcement of Minnesota’s seat belt law. You’d be impressed by the students’ radio show, original music CD, web site, public rallies—all for seat belt safety. Go here to hear their music and here to read about “Click 4 Life.”
