Youth and Community-Led Coalitions
About this Coalition
A youth and community-led coalition is a group of youth and community members directly impacted by the Rocky Mountain Partnership (RMP)’s priority areas. They mobilize to advocate for the resources and supports they most need, and that they deserve.
This includes developing messaging, strategies, and action through:
- Data and story collection
- Voter registration, education, and turnout
- Mobilizing the larger community to take specific action
Who Leads This Coalition
This coalition is led by a core team of community members, referred to as ‘Civic Influencers‘, who are directly impacted by RMP’s priority areas.
To support coalition mobilization and action, they receive:
- Compensation for their time through stipends
- Training, education, and direct support from the RMP team to understand the ins and outs of the issue they are mobilizing around
- Dedicated resources to support the coalition to take action
