The Young Organizers Survival Corps

The Young Organizers Survival Corps (TYOSC) is a national network of young organizers resisting rising extremism and authoritarianism in their communities. 

In January of 2026, over 100 young organizers gathered at the historic Alex Haley Farms in Clinton, Tennessee to learn movement history and organizing skills, practice hands-on skills in ritual, arts, and culture, and build relationships with other young organizers from across the country. Since January, organizers went back to their homes and are working with organizations, communities, and campuses to build the kind of movement that we need to meet this moment.

As a national network of young leaders, we host monthly political education sessions, writing groups, check-ins, and social events. Some of these sessions are open to other young organizers ages 18-30 across the country.
