Oceania Youth Council
The criminalization of Pasifika youth within our K-12 US school system have strengthened the school-to-prison pipeline reinforcing cycles of harm. We partner with youth to co-design programming focused on removing barriers for themselves and their peers through local advocacy and power-building activities. Our Oceania Youth Council meets in Everett and consist of our Melanesian, Polynesian and Micronesian youth who attend schools across the Puget Sound.
