What is AYEC ?
The American Youth Environmental Coalition is a group of young and passionate individuals across the US who understand the urgency of environmental issues and are dedicated to making a difference. Founded by delegates at the Washington Youth Summit on the Environment, our organization is committed to empowering and educating youth to become environmental leaders. Our mission is to create a platform where young voices can be heard, and where the power of youth is harnessed to drive meaningful environmental change.
