Community Debate ALOUD identifies partners to create community debates and virtual libraries of youth-directed resources. Partners conduct over 100 community debates annually for City Councils, foundations, bar associations and parent groups addressing environmental racism, police brutality, and childhood obesity in schools. Changing youth attitudes can be incredibly difficult work. Debate allows people to discover alignment between their existing attitudes and the new information they receive. That makes behavioral changes more palpable. Debate fosters a pipeline of young leaders that possess the change management strategies to move communities out of poverty.

This is our message to urban students:

Your Voice. Your Future. Debate.
