Count Us is a passionate group of high-school students concentrating on climate advocacy through policy and education. Our goal is to highlight youth voices in the construction and protection of our future. We are entirely youth-led.
Young people are uniquely affected by the disastrous impacts of climate change, but precisely because of that, we are in a unique position to organize against it. We gain the strength and energy to fight against climate change from being directly affected by it and we have the distinct ability to gain the sympathy of those in power. There is nothing more powerful and moving than young people simply asking for a future in which they can live.
Currently, we are writing and defending local and state-level policy, sharing resources and discussion with our community, and utilizing our leverage as students to advocate for policy and organizations we appreciate.
Interested in working with us on a project? We’d love to get in touch.
