Momentum Alliance: Inspiring Youth
Momentum Alliance is a place for young people 14-30 who want to:
- Build trust, confidence, resiliency and health
- Increase their educational and income levels
- Learn and practice leadership and advocacy skills
- Build friendships and alliances with young people they wouldn’t typically hang out with
- Diversify decision-making in the public, private and nonprofit sectors; alter relations of power; and make systems more equitable
Perhaps most importantly, Momentum Alliances offers a space for young people to be themselves, in all their identities.
