About URGE
As young people, we are our own best advocates.
We know what’s needed to build the collective future we deserve. We’re dedicated to ensuring young advocates like ourselves have the tools, training, and support to harness our irrepressible power.
Mission and Values
URGE is creating a world rooted in Reproductive Justice — where each of us can love freely, create families of our own choosing, and express our gender and sexuality however we please.
What sets URGE apart is that we’re led by young advocates and for young advocates. In fact, we’re the only national Reproductive Justice organization that centers the voices and leadership of young people. We help young people build their collective power by giving them the resources, support, and know-how to fight for justice and liberation on their own terms.
