Our Values Youth-Centered – We are created for young people, by young people. Youth shape and sign off on every decision we make. Trust – We see the best in people, and work from a place of empowerment rather than control. We trust others, and honor the trust put in us through kindness, communication, and transparency. Equity – Equity is not just something we live by, but commit to create. We prioritize those who are historically overlooked. Belonging – Our movement is designed to unite. We actively celebrate our collective diversity, and consider it our superpower. Anyone who shares our values is welcome to join.
