Mission Statement
Southern Californians for Youth is a membership-based network of social justice youth organizations working to build power among low-income youth of color in the greater Los Angeles region. We work to transform conditions in our communities by strengthening and developing the capacity of youth organizing groups. Our vision is to create a strong multi-racial/multi-ethnic youth movement led by youth of color committed to social justice.
Description
Volunteer Description
Volunteers will work as part of a team, along with the SoCal for Youth staff, that will do the critical day-to-day and programmatic work for the network. Volunteers commit to spend at least one month, 5-10 hours per week, to work on a project decided by the volunteer and SoCal for Youth staff. It is an opportunity to learn more about youth organizing, build work skills, get work experience, and help build a stronger youth movement in LA.
