About Me

We are the Young Democrats of Atlanta, and while we are technically the official chapter for Fulton County, we welcome membership from and collaboration with any greater Atlanta area Young Democrats. Our mission is to promote political awareness and activism among progressive young adults (18-40) and ultimately to get more young Democrats elected to local, state, and national office! We also manage to have a lot of fun on the side.

Our business/action meetings are the first Wednesday of every month at Manuel's Tavern, on N. Highland Ave just below North Ave; social @ 6:30, biz at 7:00 (not to be confused with "business in the front, party in the back"). Happy Hours are held the third Thursday of every month at varying locations, with a guest speaker and free appetizers.
