As we try to enact social change throughout Colorado, it is important to remember the vital role that young people play in our society.

The experiences and understandings that our youth gain in the world today will affect the society that we will live in tomorrow. That is why we here at Chinook Fund see the inherent value of engaging youth in the society around them – whether it is through art, education, political action, or community building.

Oftentimes, organizations will face challenges in reaching out to youth and getting them excited about community engagement. We hope that you will be able to learn from and connect with organizations that have faced challenges in order to more effectively engage youth and continue the fight for social justice.
