Youth Volunteering

Here’s how we’re organized

The National Youth Action Team is a space for youth from across the country to work together on effective and just climate action at the national level. We also have youth teams that work at the local and state level. The Youth Team Network brings these teams together in collaborative connection with the National Youth Action Team. The Network also provides support to newly forming youth teams.

NYAT is organized into four youth-led working teams: Actions, Outreach, Communications, and Membership/Inclusion. You can choose which team(s) to work with based on your interests.

Local/Statewide Youth Teams

If you prefer to work at the local level with other youth from your area, check out our current local and state youth teams listed below.

If you don’t see one near you, consider starting one!  Reach out to or learn more through the CCL Youth Leader Action Toolkit.

Join your local CCL Chapter

If you are interested in working locally in a multi-age setting, you can find a Citizens’ Climate Lobby chapter in your area.  Here, people of all ages work together to engage with elected officials, community leaders, and the media to build political will for a livable climate.
