Youth Activist Alliance Leaders are youth organizers who run local or state-level grassroots campaigns for change in youth sexual health and rights and reproductive justice, in Alabama, Minnesota, Nevada, and Texas. By joining our Youth Activist Network (YAN), youth serve as local lead organizers for a city, county, or state alliance. By co-creating bold visions in the fight for a world free from oppression, each alliance will launch their own campaign for change targeting their county and city councils, school boards, and state legislatures, and build up a powerful base of young activists committed to the movement for reproductive justice.

For the last 8 years, young people and allies from across Alabama have pushed for the removal of homophobic and transphobic language in their sex education curriculum. The AL YAA continued the fight and organized alongside SIECUS, AIDS Alabama and URGE to get this bill (HB385) signed into law and advance sex education in the state.
