We envision a world where young people have the opportunity to heal, develop, and are positioned to thrive.

Justice and Safe Communities

We must re-envision what safety and justice is with abolition of oppressive systems at the center.

Environmental justice is an intersectional issue area, dealing with social, racial, and economic inequities, revealing the need to work towards the just distribution of decision-making and resources to foster authentic community-oriented solutions.

Immigration Justice

Immigration justice means the collective liberation of immigrants and all people, dismantling systems of oppression, and ensuring access to basic human rights.
