Young Voices Action Collective -MI

Young Voices Action Collective -MI YVAC-MI is a black youth led organization fighting for a future that reflects our values . We are a relational organizing and mutual aid collective .

Y-VAC’s hybrid organizing approach distinguishes the organization from the traditional approach for political organizing that involves brief, transactional interactions during the election season to instead provide comprehensive services to the community while building relationships and leaders throughout our work year-round.
