Youth Social Action Project Grant Funding Opportunity
Youth Social Action is a youth development approach that empowers young people to identify issues affecting their schools, neighborhoods, and communities and take meaningful action to address them. Rather than viewing youth as recipients of services, Youth Social Action positions them as leaders, problem-solvers, and change agents capable of creating positive community impact. Through this process, young people develop critical life skills, including leadership, communication, teamwork, civic engagement, and decision-making, while gaining confidence in their ability to influence the world around them.
Any organization/agency that works with/serves youth ages 12-24 in our seven-county service area can apply for funding to support a youth social action project in partnership with youth within their respective agency/organization/community.
