At Project VOYCE, we believe in the power of youth as experts in their own experiences and as agents of change. Founded in 2006 by students and adult supporters determined to include young voices in critical conversations, we have become a leading expert in youth leadership development and equitable youth-adult partnerships. Our mission is to develop young leaders who are engaged equitably in their own development and the development of their communities.

"Project VOYCE has helped me to be the change I wish to see as well as given me the skills I need to help create new leaders in my community." - Project VOYCE Participant

Black, Indigenous, and other youth of color face numerous challenges in our society, from inequitable educational systems to the impact of generational and systemic trauma. Project VOYCE is committed to addressing these systemic issues by co-designing an organizational model that embodies youth-adult partnerships rooted in healing justice principles. We recognize that healing is not just an individual act but a sociopolitical act that makes communities more powerful.

A celebration of youth leaders, Venture with VOYCE is an annual event that recognizes the incredible achievements of the youth who have participated in VOYCE Academy. This year, we are excited to be back in person and bring it back to where it all started at Manual High School.

"The most important thing I've learned from Project VOYCE is to always use your voice, and never hold back." - PV Youth Facilitator

Together, we will celebrate and elevate youth voice to cultivate a more just and equitable future.

"The only way to create change is for people to understand what is going on, and, more importantly, how we can fix it. We are the ones who come up with the ideas to fix things that are going on with individuals, schools, and the system." - Participant

Supporting Project VOYCE means investing in the rising generation of Black, Indigenous, and historically underrepresented youth leaders. By providing them with the skills, resources, and support networks they need, we are fortifying them for the long-term work of radical systems change.

Together, we can make a lasting impact and build a more just and equitable society. To learn more about the event opportunities or how you can get involved, please contact us.
