And just like that, the 2024 election cycle has ended. This cycle, NextGen worked tirelessly across our states, on the ground and online, to engage, educate, and mobilize young voters.
From concerts to basketball games to friendship bracelets to raves, our team continued to find creative and innovative ways to spark enthusiasm, build momentum, and foster a long-lasting sense of civic responsibility.
We worked alongside over 100 partners, movement leaders, and activists like SEIU, CWA, BET, NAACP, Voters of Tomorrow, Planned Parenthood Action Fund, Alliance for Youth Action, Klutch sports group, Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity, Unidos, and so many more.
Youth Coalition Statement
Together, youth organizing leaders NextGen America, Voters of Tomorrow, Alliance for Youth Action, For Michigan, Rally NC, Project 26 Pennsylvania, the Wisco Project, and NAACP Youth and College release the following statement:
“Our work to educate, empower, and mobilize young people has always been about building a progressive movement that is larger than any single candidate or election year. Young people turned out this year, and we know our generation will continue to be a force for freedom, equity, and hope.
“We are proud to stand together with our youth coalition partners in our movement for change, and we are committed to continuing this work. Together, our youth movement directly contacted millions of young people this election cycle across the country. There is strength in our collective power, and the work we do day in and day out remains essential. We are here, we stand together, and we are not backing down.”
