Our Vision

Youth Voice Matters!

 We strive to create a future where every young person feels confident in their ability to lead, innovate, and make meaningful contributions to the issues they care about most. By fostering opportunities for youth to engage in civic action, career development, and service learning, we aim to cultivate a generation of compassionate leaders who prioritize community well-being and sustainable growth. Through mentorship, education, and advocacy, we empower young people to turn their ideas into actionable solutions, creating lasting change locally and globally. 

Our Beliefs

Youth Are Assets to Their Communities!

  • We are all responsible for empowering youth, providing them with opportunities to participate in shaping public policy, especially where it directly affects their lives and their futures.
  • Meaningful service-learning activities that include Youth Voice help to build and create strong, diverse communities of engaged, intelligent, and socially responsible young people who are committed to civic action and who have a passion for learning.
  • Strong, positive relationships with adults are key to the success of young people.

The Heart of our Organization

We founded Youth Infusion in 2009 and achieved official nonprofit status on January 20, 2010. At the heart of Youth Infusion is a steadfast commitment to fostering diversity, equity, inclusion, and, most importantly, a sense of belonging. Our programs are intentionally designed to support students facing a wide range of challenges. LGBTQ+ youth, students navigating mental health struggles such as anxiety, depression, and self-harm, and those dealing with bullying, school violence, or complex home environments have all found comfort, support, and connection through Youth Infusion.


Young people need a safe space where they can express themselves authentically, feel secure in their identities, and know they are not alone. Youth Infusion provides that space through an innovative blend of service-learning, peer-to-peer engagement, and mentorship. Our focus is on creating, building, and expanding programs that resonate with youth, address their real needs, and foster meaningful peer connections while strengthening their ties to their broader communities.


Recognizing the critical importance of mental health, we integrate teen Mental Health First Aid (tMHFA) training into our programs, equipping young people with the tools to identify and respond to mental health challenges in themselves and their peers. Additionally, we provide Youth Mental Health First Aid (YMHFA) training for our Task Force Mentors, ensuring they are prepared to offer guidance and support to the students they mentor. By prioritizing mental health education, we create an ecosystem of understanding and empathy that empowers youth and adults alike to foster positive change.
