Introduction

Young Democratic Socialists of America is the youth and student section of the Democratic Socialists of America, and a national organization of recognized campus chapters and several hundred activists. We are students organizing in our universities, colleges, and high schools to fight for the immediate needs of workers and students while building our capacity to fight for more radical and structural changes.

We form member driven unions that give real power to thousands of student workers. We organize to defend immigrants through campaigns for sanctuary campuses. We campaign to divest our schools from fossil fuels and Israeli apartheid. We run candidates for on and off campus elections: bringing class struggle to the halls of power. We do anti-poverty work through local mutual aid programs in our communities, and much much more.

YDSA fights for democratic socialism through active campaigns to improve the lives of working people.
