YAIJ Volunteer Application Form

The Youth Alliance for Intersectional Justice (YAIJ) is a Black youth-led collective of racialized and neurovaried youth, adults, and allies. We're here to amplify the voices of youth who have a variety of labels related to race, dis/ability, sexuality, gender expression, economic status, and other social labels.At the centre of our organization are racialized youth with intellectual and/or developmental disability (I/DD) labels. Youth challenge special needs labels by taking up space, teaching, and learning on their own terms, and directing their own life stories.  We develop youth-centred, community-based projects and research focused on education, technology, housing, employment, and entrepreneurship.

Please fill out this form if you are interested in volunteering with YAIJ. We have a number of volunteer opportunities available and would love to work with you to play to your strengths and have you feel a part of our community. Once you fill out this form we will review it and reach out to you. 

If you have any questions or comments please feel free to reach out to us at whatshappening@yaij.org
