OUR VOICES. OUR COMMUNITIES. OUR POWER.

At BroSis, we believe the people closest to a challenge should have a voice in shaping the solutions.

Our work with young people has always extended beyond our programs and into the larger systems that shape their lives. We organize alongside young people, families, alumni, and community partners to challenge inequity, build collective power, and advance policies that create greater safety, opportunity, and access.

Our advocacy focuses on the issues our communities tell us matter most, from education and youth justice to immigrant rights, civic participation, and investment in the neighborhoods where young people live and grow.

We work to:

• Expand youth voice and civic power: Create meaningful opportunities for young people to participate in decisions that affect their education, communities, and futures.
• Build more just approaches to youth safety and justice: Support policies that prioritize prevention, opportunity, accountability, and community-based solutions over punitive systems.
• Create more equitable schools: Advocate for school environments where students are supported, treated fairly, and have a meaningful voice in how their schools are governed.
• Protect immigrant young people and families: Advance access to legal representation, due process, and policies that allow immigrant communities to live, learn, and participate with dignity and security.
• Invest in community-based solutions: Champion public investment in the organizations and programs that provide young people with pathways to education, employment, leadership, and opportunity.

Our young people bring firsthand knowledge of the challenges facing their communities and powerful ideas about how to address them.

Through organizing, civic engagement, coalition-building, public education, and advocacy, BroSis helps transform that experience into collective action.

We believe lasting change happens when communities have both a seat at the table and the power to shape what happens there.
