WHO WE ARE & WHY WE ARE PASSIONATELY ORGANIZING FOR IMMIGRATION AND EDUCATION REFORM
Youth Changing a Nation (Youth CAN) is a national coalition led by young community organizers united for immigrant rights and comprehensive immigration reform.
We advocate for educational equity and equal opportunities for young immigrants and the children of immigrants so that they can achieve their full potential and inspire political change for a JUST future.
We strive to empower and encourage other youth of diverse backgrounds to organize their communities in defense of our right to education. We see the DREAM Act and other student legalization provisions, as critical changes that must be made to ensure the success of immigrant students, our families and our communities.
