United States Youth Forum

The mission of the United States Youth Forum (USYF) is to empower young people to speak up about issues occurring in their local communities and to connect them together as part of a larger network of young people across the United States. We seek to involve young people in dialogue, especially with people in positions of power. These spaces - where policy is shaped and defined - lack strong youth voices that speak on behalf of a younger generation. Our purpose is to build a youth network strong enough to push for inclusion in these spaces of power.
