Citywide Youth Coalition's Campaigns
Citywide Youth Coalition partners directly with youth to develop campaigns that uplift, builds power, and supports them in every aspect of their lives, from schools to social spaces, while equipping them with the tools to advocate, organize, and fight for their own liberation. By centering youth voices and leadership, CWYC helps build a generation of change-makers ready to challenge injustice and transform their communities.
"WE VOTE NEXT"
We Vote Next is a youth-powered campaign to transform our democracy by demanding that young people, particularly those most impacted by systemic injustice, have the power to vote in local elections starting at age sixteen. This campaign reimagines civic engagement through a justice-centered lens, challenging exclusionary structures and creating a future where young people don’t just participate in democracy, they shape it.
