Young Americans

About Me

Association of Young Americans is a NON-PARTISAN, non profit organization. We were formed by a small group of young adults who wanted to do something to help young people become more informed about public policy issues(without partisan or ideological spin) and provide forums where young adults could discuss issues amongst themselves. Check out OUR WEBSITE - associationofyoungAmericans.org.There are decisions being made and we need to educate ourselves about what they mean for us and what we can do.
