PLAY ·2024 Grants ChallengeYouth Environmental Advocacy (YEA) Program
Climate change and lack of green space affects everyone, but the future belongs to our youth. 14% of Los Angeles residents are aged 15-24, showcasing a unique opportunity for our youth to advocate for a greener, more climate-resilient future. The Youth Environmental Advocacy (YEA) Program offers paid opportunities for youth in LA's underserved communities to learn about intersectional environmental issues that affect their daily lives and collaborate with community leaders to effect lasting change in their communities.
