Description
Elevate Youth California is a statewide program addressing substance use disorder by investing in the youth leadership and civic engagement for youth of color and 2S/LGBTQ+ youth ages 12 to 26 living in communities disproportionately impacted by the war on drugs.
Youth Empowerment
Our funded programs foster a power-sharing environment between youth and their adult allies, where young people’s skills and ideas are valued.
Our youth are talented, capable, and ready to lead.
Cultural Empathy
Our partners are working on healing and changing the environment for communities impacted by the War on Drugs
Funded programs are designed with trauma-informed strategies and cultural humility, while centering young people’s experiences and expertise.
Systemic Change
Adult allies guiding Elevate Youth California-funded programs recognize that the War on Drugs is a direct result of systemic racism, which has led to inequity in health systems and criminalization of youth in low-income communities and communities of color.
The focus is to build a new foundation by shifting the way problems are solved.
