Youth and College Issues

Students have always been at the forefront of most major social movements. From the Civil Rights Movement of the 60’s to the anti-apartheid movement of the 1980’s, student activism has forced society and the world to change. NAACP youth units across America are engaged in social justice activism addressing issues at the local, state and national level. The primary focus issues for the Division are the following:

  • Voting Rights and Political Representation
  • Economic Sustainability
  • Education
  • Health
  • Juvenile Justice
  • Voter Empowerment
