About the Host

The Alliance for Youth Organizing is advancing a new era of democracy that is locally led and publicly engaged. We envision a society where young voters come out to the polls in numbers that actually shape the public discourse, and electoral system that encourages rather than discourages all people to be active and engaged participants. We do this by building the capacity of and providing resources to our network of independent affiliate organizations as well as stronger oversight of and training for affiliate financial management.
