The AYF's arts-based animation process has yielded a wealth of collectively created arts expressions including murals, comic books, music, poetry and drama. Over the years, these have been produced and shared with the public in the form of songs, music videos, drama-in-education performance pieces, video documentaries, docudramas and live theatre.

AYF constantly seeks to support young peoples' aspirations, their educational goals and their personal growth, as well as to bring harmony to the communities in which they live. AYF carries out programmes in inner city communities of Kingston in which the maintenance or breaching of territorial boundaries frequently ignite violent clashes, and the Foundation has been effective in bringing together elders and youths across the border lines around mutually beneficial development projects.
