Are you over 24, but still know a young activist? Forward them this message! (NOTE: this photo is from one of our last in-person Youth Activist Institutes. So excited to bring the in-person YAI back this year!
Hi John,
Whew, a lot happening this weekend! Tomorrow, we hope you can go to a #BansOffOurBodies rally near you (check out the updated map here!) But don't forget that applications for this life-changing opportunity for young activists close Sunday night.
The 150 young people we choose get to:
- Attend a trip to Washington, D.C. for training and community-building. Don't worry, we will cover your flight, hotel, food, etc. Afterward, you'll have access to Advocates for Youth staff & financial support for activism in your local community all year long.
- Help create various resources we distribute all year round, such as the "I'm Muslim and I Might Not Be Straight" brochures; our Youth Activist Toolkit; videos featuring abortion storytellers; or digital campaigns to raise awareness about reproductive justice, gender-based violence, anti-racism, and LGBTQ rights.
-
Build your career as an activist like so many young leaders today who started at Advocates for Youth.
If you or a young person you know wants to develop skills and build power to make a difference in your community, click here to learn more about our programs and apply today.

P.S. - if you're not ages 14-24, can you forward this email to someone you think would be a good fit? Or to an organization who works with young people? We need everyone to do their part to help us build this incredible group!
