What if, instead of building a program, we created a social revolution which would change all existing programs? What if, instead of aspiring to become our own international monolithic giant, we could instead give a 'hot-foot" to all the existing leadership resources out there, in a way that would inspire them to reform themselves and evolve? "Use the kids." No, not exactly. More appropriately, let the kids use us! We would become "Social Middleware", a thin, adaptable organization that would operate as the synapse that fires from the consciousness of our youth, and animates the body of the youth development world. And so YouthVoice was born, a grass-roots social action youth movement, which helps teens organize themselves on a community-by-community basis. YouthVoice works with local teen communities to build powerful communications platforms (radio, newspaper, posters, town-hall meetings) in order to impact reform among the organizations that serve them; their schools, community centers, houses of worship, and local and national youth development organizations.Do we want to increase the rate of change? Empower youth.
