The Young Women's Project leads young women through a process of personal transformation so they can become leaders in their peer groups, schools, families, and communities who are able to analyze problems, develop solutions, and advocate for change. With this confidence, understanding, and power, YWP participants advance a bold, teen-led advocacy agenda based on the real-life issues facing teens. Young women leverage their power through collective action to advocate for change in their communities.YWP works primarily with young women of color, many of whom are from low-income households, who live in neighborhoods through Washington, DC. Each year our programs reach several hundred young people, who in turn teach and inspire the young people and adults in their lives, resulting in a ripple effect of educating and motivating thousands.
