Description/notes
Based in California, Youth on Root’s mission is to centre low-income youth and youth of colour as change agents in their communities by providing tools for learning from each other and opportunities to use their unique power to promote environmental justice.
We envision a self-sustaining grassroots movement led by youth who have meaningful opportunities to enact their visions of environmental justice for their communities.
