Alum/College Organizers found National Organization!

Not in High School Anymore? NY2NO Alum are still doing organizing under the new organization Youth Coalition for Community Action!


NY2NO is an organization that works specifically with High School-aged youth in order to keep their leadership sustainable; however, once the organizers and participants graduate High School they still hold the organizing skills and the desperate desire to keep working towards a just world. NY2NO has (unintentionally) gone national as many of their members leave New York City to continue on their own path. This group is called Youth Coalition for Community action. As Alum and other college youth, we have begun organizing together from across the country, working in solidarity with our High School counterparts and taking direction from them in the spirit of bottom-up organizing.

NY2NO Conducts First Census of the Lower Ninth Ward Since Katrina

NY2NO Organizers complete Map Project Via Computer Software!

According to a recent report by Common Ground Relief, no survey of the Lower Ninth ward has yet to be conducted to identify its post-Katrina population demographics, and the needs that its residents face. Therefore, throughout the summer of 2009, NY2NO volunteers partnered with Our School at Blair Grocery in the Lower Ninth Ward to conduct such a census survey. NY2NO volunteers walked through every street and canvassed every home in the Lower Ninth Ward over the course of this past summer, and have thus been able to finally identify the community demographics, as well as the most significant community needs.
