PROGRAMS
Youth Action Fund offers a variety of ways for young people to build and wield power in their communities.
Campaign Advising
Youth Action Fund recognizes how challenging it can be to organize in Florida, especially as a young person new to advocacy.
We offer campaign advising to young organizers in need of strategic guidance and other resources.
Our advising program matches seasoned campaigners with young activists, who then assist with developing comprehensive campaign strategies including; defining campaign goals, identifying target audiences, crafting persuasive messaging, and creating effective outreach plans. Advisors also serve as a point person to provide additional resources that may come in handy!
If you want to lead a campaign but can't think of a cause, our advisors can help you brainstorm too!

Campaign Stipends
We are committed to building a powerful youth movement by uplifting progressive organizers in need.
Youth Action Fund exists to support young activists and organizers in Florida. In order to create a future for Florida that works for all of us, we need young people fired up and on the ground. With that goal in mind, we offer campaign stipends to help young people make progressive change in their communities. Check out Our Values to see what kind of campaigns we support.
Campaign stipends are mini-grants that YAF offers to groups of young people in need of funding to realize their goals. Organizing is often expensive and time-consuming, and that burden is often felt most by marginalized communities who are most impacted by culture war policies. Through our stipend program, YAF is determined to tackle the resource gap that exists in youth advocacy.
Campaign Stipends are only available to those residing in the State of Florida and under the age of 24.
Applications are reviewed by a diverse cohort of progressive organizers. You can apply for a campaign stipend below.
