What we aim to solve
Young Americans for Liberty Foundation is organized around the ideals of a free society. Originally named Students for Ron Paul, YALF works to educate students on the principles of liberty on campuses that often do not advance the values of liberty enough. YALF exists to provide students on campus with a haven for the values of liberty and to mobilize them into action.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
Young Americans for Liberty Foundation, in line with Young Americans for Liberty, Inc., aims to recognize and empower young activists with the toolkit and network to advance our shared cause. YALF enables students on campus to grow in their personal development, leadership capabilities and understanding of principles.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
In order to empower young activists, YALF organizes and supplies chapters on campus, throws major events nationwide and especially in the Arlington-D.C. area, recruits non-members, places students in direct working roles, provides leadership training and connects students with useful resources when encountering administrations that hinder their activity.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
YALF's capabilities include advancing the projects on campus, throwing events, funding activism and outreach, and throwing leadership seminars. In order to do all that YALF does YALF employs full-time national staff as well as students in part- and full-time positions on campus and within activism regions.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
Each year for YALF has been larger than the last. The annual national event for top leaders, YALCON, hosted over 400 students in Arlington. In 2018 alone YALF has organized over 1,500 events on college campuses. In the area of advancing free speech, YALF has challenged over 120 Unconstitutional free speech codes. YALF also recently founded a media department which had over 1,000 media hits in 2018. Each year has been larger than the last. Moving forward, YALF will have the majors goals of growing its campus presence in all fifty states and enabling a pipeline to enable students to find their path in politics.
