As part of YJAM, we’re asking young people around the country to design a #VoteYouthJustice poster. Five posters will be selected by the Campaign for Youth Justice’s spokespeople and those 5 posters will be voted on by the general public. The winning poster will be used by the Campaign for Youth Justice leading up to Election Day 2018.

October is the tenth anniversary of Youth Justice Action Month (YJAM). The call to action resonates with us now more than ever. To make YJAM successful, we need your help in ensuring that children have the opportunity to grow into productive and engaged citizens. Join us as we #VoteYouthJustice.
