Young People For





Welcome!


In 2004, People For the American Way Foundation launched a strategic, long-term leadership initiative, Young People For, to invest in the next generation of leaders and build a long-term national network for young progressives. Young People For is committed to protecting and promoting our nation's core values by identifying, engaging and empowering young leaders and activists and equipping them to work toward positive social change in their communities and across the nation. Young People For provides a national infrastructure to support young leaders' ongoing activism on the frontlines and facilitates connections to leaders and organizations in the progressive movement. We work to build intergenerational networks that will enable progressive organizations to identify a significant pool of talented, passionate and committed young leaders and encourage their continued professional development within the progressive movement.

Whether you're already part of the Young People For network or a first-time visitor, you'll find plenty of items of interest on our new, improved and much-anticipated website. You can meet the Fellows and find out about the tremendous work they're doing nationwide or just learn more about who we are and what we do. We have a number of resources available to progressive activists of all ages. You'll also discover opportunities to learn about important national issues. Are you a young leader, activist or social entrepreneur with a strong commitment to progressive values? Apply for a national fellowship or nominate a young progressive leader you know.

Come in, explore, interact - get active! Welcome to Young People For!
