About

League of Young Voters (LYV) is a non-partisan, non-profit 501(c)(3) organization devoted to empowering young voters and fostering informed, meaningful civic engagement. We strive to rebuild trust in democracy and good governance, advocating for policies that enhance the lives of young people while encouraging thoughtful, intellectual discourse on the issues that matter most.

​

Our mission centers on equipping young people with the tools and knowledge to actively participate in democracy. We focus on creating opportunities for youth to learn about and discuss critical issues, fostering stronger connections with their local communities, and promoting educational initiatives that cultivate an understanding and appreciation of local identity, history, and culture.

​

At LYV, we prioritize improving the lives of young people and strengthening communities nationwide. Our work addresses some of the most pressing challenges facing today's youth: the escalating costs of higher education, the growing mental health crisis, the need for balanced and sustainable environmental policies, the rising disengagement from civic responsibilities, and the lack of affordable living standards. Through legislative advocacy, community programs, and educational initiatives, we aim to create meaningful change that uplifts young people and builds healthier, more resilient communities.
