Streetlights is a brand that offers a comprehensive Production Assistant Training Program. Founded in 1992 by Dorothy Thompson, the brand aims to address the racial and cultural tensions prevalent in Los Angeles by providing fulfilling job opportunities to young men and women living in disadvantaged neighborhoods. Recognizing the shortage of employment options that allowed individuals to establish stable careers and support themselves and their families, Thompson began personally training young people as Production Assistants.

As Streetlights gained support from various production companies committed to diversity, the program expanded, offering training and job opportunities to an increasing number of aspiring individuals. The brand's mission is to assist talented and motivated young adult minorities, who are often economically and socially disadvantaged, in achieving long-term economic stability and career success within the entertainment industry. Streetlights believes in creating a diverse talent pool in the industry, ranging from Gaffers to Producers, to provide ethnically diverse crew members for companies.

Through their entry-level Production Assistant Training, Streetlights helps graduates advance into management positions and union crews, ultimately enabling them to pursue their desired careers behind the camera. The brand has received recognition for its impactful work, including the ADCOLOR MVP Award for the Most Valuable Partnership, as well as the Bank of America Community Catalyst Award. Streetlights continues to make a difference in the lives of aspiring professionals, bridging the gap for underrepresented talent in the entertainment industry
