Texas Youth Power Alliance is building the power of young people in Texas to win on the issues that matter to them.
Who We Are
The Texas Youth Power Alliance Education Fund (TYPAEF) is a 501(c)3 collaborative strategic hub that strengthens our movement ecosystem, enabling organizations statewide to effectively harness youth power for a stronger democracy in Texas. Our Alliance is made up of 6 member organizations and 13+ partners from across the state, dedicated to building youth power.
Our Goals
TYPA is investing long-term in young leaders across Texas. Utilizing an Integrative voter engagement model, our priority is to develop strategies for generational change.
-
With an emphasis on year-round leadership development, TYPA recruits, mentors and trains young leaders on issue advocacy, electoral politics and communications strategies. Our Integrated Voter Engagement model is successful because of the long-term investment in young people.
-
TYPA partners are committed to expanding the electorate by engaging, registering and turning out out hundreds of thousands of new, young voters every election cycle. The impact of our work was evident in the 2020 election, when youth voter turnout jumped from 28% to 41% statewide!
-
Through our collaborative Youth Justice Agenda, TYPA is dedicated to winning on issues of importance to young people - voting rights, climate justice, LGBTQ+ equality, immigration reform, policing in our communities – to ensure and to benefit the long-term success of our state’s young people.
