For Youth:
- The best way to get involved is to contact us, and we'll work together to figure out the best way for you to get started. Don't feel like you have to have an idea to reach out to us. Just let us know you're interested and we'll go from there. And if you have an idea, fantastic!
- Spend some time exploring the rest of GenV and looking at some of the teams that are already active in the community. Also, be sure to check out our videos on YouTube and what teams are up to on our campaigns site.
- Start writing down ideas whenever they strike! You never know when inspiration might hit... just make sure you remember it!
For Adults:
There are many ways to get involved with Youth Venture Seattle, and we are always open to exploring opportunities that most fit your interests and experiences. Just contact us to get started! Here are some ways that people have been involved in the past:
- Ally Program: Through our experience supporting youth-led change, we've realized that passionate adult role models are an essential part of the transformative process young people undergo in planning, launching, and leading their own Ventures. Read more about ways to directly support young people here [PDF].
- Administrative Support: Help us with the day-to-day logistics of supporting young Changemakers. A variety of tasks and responsibilities would be incredibly useful to us.
For Partner Organizations and Schools:
Youth Venture Seattle is always looking for new ways to partner with schools and organizations in order to encourage youth to be Changemakers in their community. We do presentations to groups of youth, work individually with youth who are developing Ventures, and host a workshop series called the Dream It. Do It. Challenge. If your organization is interested in setting up a partnership meeting to learn more about opportunities to get involved with Youth Venture, please contact us.
