Are you interested in making your school, neighborhood and New York City a better place to live? Are you worried about a problem affecting your community?

Homelessness, school safety, juvenile justice – Do you want to know how YOU can create change on these important issues?

Welcome to YouthAction NYC. We are a group of New York City high school students working to ensure that every child is healthy, housed, educated and safe.

Our mission is to make our city a better place for children and families by getting young New Yorkers involved in social activism. YouthAction NYC members are knowledgeable on issues affecting children and families, on government, and on how to advocate. We bring our passion and expertise to City Hall, up to Albany, and throughout New York City neighborhoods.

Through participation in advocacy projects, YouthAction NYC offers young people an opportunity to positively impact their lives, the lives of other New Yorkers, and the City as a whole.

We can come to you! We offer Advocacy Trainings and Workshops for after-school programs and in class activities.

 

YouthAction NYC is a program of Citizens' Committee for Children of New York, Inc.
