Dear John,

As we come to the end of 2025, we want to take a moment to say thank you. Your support, partnership, and belief in young people made this year one of extraordinary growth, impact, and community for the National Collaborative for Transformative Youth Policy (TYP).

Below are just a few highlights from this year— we’ve reached each of these milestones because of you!

 

🎉 TYP Turned One!

This year, TYP celebrated its first anniversary—and supporters like you helped us raise over $7,000 in honor of this milestone. Because of your generosity, we launched our Collective Care Fund, providing direct support to young partners facing financial challenges. This fund is already helping young leaders stay stable, connected, and able to continue their work for justice.

 

📝 Publications & Policy Impact

In a year marked by ongoing attacks on young people across the U.S., TYP remained steadfast—pushing for transformative policy changes at the federal, state, and local levels in deep collaboration with directly impacted youth and their communities.

Below is a non-exhaustive list of some of our written work across our three core areas:

Economic Justice

  • Building the Mental Healthcare Apprenticeships Young People Need: Three Essentials for Youth Workforce Providers

  • Youth Workers Speak Out: New Perspectives on the Need for Paid Leave

  • WIOA Under Threat: What's at Stake for Opportunity Youth

Mental Health

  • Climate Policy for Better Youth Mental Health: Disaster Response

  • Youth Mobile Response: Guiding Principles

  • Hope is a Discipline: Lessons from the 2025 Youth Policy Summit

Justice

  • How Administrators Push Students of Color into the School-to-Prison Pipeline

  • Reimagining Safety: Youth Mobile Response and the Path to Police-Free Schools

 

None of this work would be possible without the supportive community that surrounds TYP with care, encouragement, and belief. Thank you for showing up for young people and moving justice forward with us every day.

We wish you and each of your loved ones a warm, safe, and happy holiday.

With gratitude,

The TYP Team
