Youth as Solutions
Applications are currently closed. Check back in May 2025 to apply!
Youth as Solutions is a program just for you! It gives students like yourself the power to make a difference in your community. After forming a Leadership Team (of at least two students + an adult mentor) you’ll apply to create a service-learning project based in one of our core impact areas: education equity, community health, environmental justice, or civics and democracy. You will recruit other students to join your team and support your project while following our step-by-step service-learning process to tackle one of these big problems and make real change happen in your community. You’ll investigate community needs, plan and prepare a project to address those needs, take action, reflect on your work, and demonstrate your learning, with our support along the way!
Developing your leadership skills equips you with the ability to communicate, collaborate, and motivate others, preparing you for your future!
Learn from and with our national group of changemakers – other youth and adults who are addressing impact areas through projects like yours – from across the country.
When you advocate for what you believe in, you empower yourself and inspire others to take action, creating a ripple effect in your community and around the world!
“This program has provided a platform for young people like me to voice our ideas, take action on issues that matter to us, and make a positive impact in our communities…the program has fostered a strong sense of community among participants. Connecting with like-minded peers from diverse backgrounds and sharing our experiences, challenges, and successes has been invaluable. ”
