The Power of youth organizing
An informative and lively conversation with YOUTH LEADERS from the Georgia Youth Justice Coalition. Their priority has been building a sustainable, supportive, and just community for youth changemaking. A better Georgia requires an organizing space that invites and incubates young Georgians to remain lifelong organizers.

We build resources, run programs, and make space for the priorities of youth changemakers in the ecosystem of progressive organizing across Georgia. We build coalitions and we build community. We pay our staff, train those younger than us, and make (strategic) noise.

We stop bills meant to ban truth and steal school funds. We stand against policies meant to marginalize our trans siblings. We stand alongside parents, educators, and allies in the fight for education justice.

Were organizing for the world every child deserves. As fascism rears its ugly head, were here to show a beautiful alternative. This site is a peek into this extraordinary, youth-led work.

Wevve worked tirelessly to train legislative aides and ballot cure experts, run community education operations around key advocacy priorities, build youth networks in the fight for the next decade of democracy, and bring young Georgians together. We uplift the stories of youth to build policy victories rooted in the humanity of marginalized groups.

Now, were at the forefront of the fight to stop the dark money machinery of white supremacy trying to use our schools and as political pawns for their hate.

We deserve schools, communities, and elected leaders that serve all of us instead of pushing hate into our classrooms to score political points.

And were doing something about it.
