In an age when movements are as common as a tweet, the struggle to ensure their authenticity, value and commitment to the people are unclear.

This blurriness is not just a detriment for the dissemination of the message the movement aims to carry but can cause extreme harm to the folks it intends to serve.

But how does someone or a group of people create a movement that is relevant, impactful and authentic?

Learning from the 15 years Young People For has worked and partnered with young leaders, we have found the secret sauce. Hear the keys to authentic movements from some of our stellar Alum who have created movements themselves.
