Momentum Alliance is a Portland-based youth-led non-profit, with experienced coaches, whose mission is to inspire youth to realize their power individually and collectively and to mentor future social justice leaders. Momentum Alliance works to create a regional network of young leaders who act as a collective force to advance individual, institutional, and systemic change for equity.

Momentum Alliance builds collective power by providing year-round leadership development opportunities for young people to build relationships, skills, and confidence to be leaders in their own lives and in their community.

Momentum Alliance has two programs, Student Alliance Project (SAP), their “pre-apprenticeship” leadership program and Leveraging Momentum (LM), their “journey level” leadership network that support underrepresented youth to become the public, private and non-profit sector’s next leaders, advocates, organizers and policy makers.
