Programs
Youth-Centered Digital Platform
We have the largest youth-centered digital platform in the state which we leverage to organize our followers to grow from clicktivists to activists.
Statewide Leadership & Wellness Camps
We offer a statewide summer organizing camp and fall policy boot camp for young people where they find peer support, cultural healing, and skills to hone their leadership and advocacy.
Membership and Chapters
More than 20 and growing on campus-based groups across the state provide daily to weekly spaces for youth to connect, heal, learn, challenge, grow together, and lead campaigns to win change. Our collective efforts use culture to heal and create conditions instrumental to community well-being.

“Brown Issues is where my “I can’t” turns into “I did” and my dreams turn into plans, which then turn into stories. Through my involvement in the Schools Not Prisons campaign, I now aspire to become a school board member and eventually the superintendent. We deserve better. ”
