Join us in creating a generation of gaptivists.

Our mission: to empower our nation’s youth to take an intentional gap year in 2020 to work on an election campaign or for an issues-based organization that resonates with their values.

Our vision: a generation of young people who actively engage in democracy and use their collective power to affect positive change in our society.
