TYM4Change

Transitional Youth Mobilizing for Change (TYM4Change) is a California-based youth development nonprofit organization with a mission to empower youth 16-24 years of age to build skills, achieve their potential, and become agents of change in their communities through learning, research, and action. 

We recruit youth who, for a variety of reasons, may lack the opportunities that make college and professional employment a given in their futures. By participating in youth-driven research and service learning projects focused on education, advocacy, and community development, TYM4Change empowers youth people to (1) learn about their community’s needs, (2) identify and research ways to meet them, and (3) take action–all while building vital leadership, research, and social-emotional skills.
