Youth Learning for Justice is part of our Community Justice Sites and national civic and political action education programming. Through learning that teaches honest history, introduces servant leadership (an approach that focuses on leadership in service of the community) and eases entry into the movement for justice, we aim to help young people realize their power to shape the future.
Youth activism has been a powerful force for change and progress. When young people step up and speak out, they bring fresh perspectives, boundless energy, and unshakeable determination in the march toward justice.
Youth LFJ offers Days of Action Toolkits, learning journeys, book reviews and resources for young people and adults working to support them. We will continue adding resources to this page.
“When historians pick up their pens to write the story of the 21st century, let them say that it was your generation who laid down the heavy burdens of hate at last and that peace finally triumphed over violence, aggression and war. So I say to you, walk with the wind, brothers and sisters, and let the spirit of peace and the power of everlasting love be your guide.”
– John Lewis
