About the Organization
Young Voices’ mission is to cultivate the next generation of thought leaders for liberty in policy, journalism, and academia. Founded in 2013, Young Voices mentors and promotes 100+ pro-liberty communicators each year through our flagship Contributor Program, helping them place 150+ media hits per month in print, radio, and TV.

Our writers make the principled case for liberty to millions of persuadable readers across mainstream and emerging media. We also host the Dissident Project, a speakers bureau for immigrants who escaped tyranny and now share their stories with students nationwide.
