Your Peers


Explore what your peers, your family members, and other members of your community do.

Your friends, friends of your friends, your family members, and other members of your community can also help you make change. They can provide you with important information about contacts and resources, or connect you to someone inside the government or school committee. Your friend group can amplify your voice so that your message can be delivered more effectively. For one example of how you might organize with your peers to serve as a lever of change, see the Cambridge Youth Council.
