The Center for Youth Political Participation at Rutgers University celebrates and supports political learning and engagement among young people

The quality of our democracy is based in large part on the education youth receive in citizenship. Through research, public service, and educational programs, CYPP is dedicated to exploring civic education at the high school level and political participation among young adults.
