Campaign Victories

yli helped us by providing comprehensive support and training on youth-led advocacy initiatives and helping to guide the implementation process of an advocacy – action campaign. The result was the ability to create and realize realistic yet powerful goals together as a collaborative of organizations, youth and educators. I found the experience extremely rewarding because it embodied powerful youth development work that is truly youth-centered and based in social justice.
