Founded by college students on the University of California, Berkeley in 2002, Mobilize.org shows young people how public policy affects our lives, and conversely, how we can affect public policy. Mobilizing America's Youth believes that young people have the untapped ability to amass political power and encourage organizations and institutions to appreciate and earn our participation. Our programs, partnerships, and events are reflective of our belief that young people can have a profound and long-lasting effect on public policy.
