The organization’s goal is to develop young leaders who are empowered and equipped to insist through organized political action that access to quality public education is a basic right, regardless of their background or family income level. In particular, YUC is focused on dismantling the school-to-prison pipeline and ending policies that criminalize students predominantly from communities of color; on ensuring full and fair education funding; on ensuring environmental justice and healthy conditions for all schools; and on advocating for a Community Schools model of robust neighborhood schools that are hubs for community engagement, and provide wraparound services for students and their families.
