Mission
There are three major issues we have
focused on to help us recruit and mobilize young women
into the Democratic Party: Communication, Connection
and Outreach. Harnessing the Internet, we can develop
and communicate a message that resonates with young
women and spread that message wisely and frequently
at no cost. The Young Democrats of America have identified
a network of thousands of young Democratic women. By
establishing a connection with these young women, on
a state-by-state basis, we can increase the size and
strength of YDA, and the Democratic Party. The end result
is a new voting block for Democratic candidates. However,
we must expand our efforts! To date, we have focused
on existing Democratic organizations. The creation of
a database of allied organizations and leaders will
help us cultivate prospective YDA members and continually
extend our message to a new audience.
Women and young people have been two
of the most supportive voting demographics for the Democratic
ticket in recent years. By recognizing and understanding
this trend, the Young Democrats chapters across the
nation have experienced tremendous growth and increasing
interest over the past few years. With a crucial election
year approaching and voter apathy increasing, there
is no better time than now to combine our resources
and maximize our efforts.
