About us
We exist to improve the lives of Grand Rapids youth through public policy and innovative programs. We value the active participation and voices of youth in our advocacy, and we work to ensure they have the resources they need to be successful in life. We convene community partners to tackle the tough problems that affect youth, and we advocate strongly for federal, state, and local resources to help our youngest residents become leaders today and for tomorrow.
