“We were essentially one big, youth-run project trying out new ideas left, right and centre. It was fun and all, but there is only so many programs you can operate before you start losing your mind.”

"To help further and grow our mission, we've made the decision to become a part of the Institute for Youth in Policy (YIP). The YACU will dissolve as a nonprofit organization and [combine efforts with YIP]."

"We are official" is now official.
Institute for Youth in Policy
[ˈinstəˌt(y)o͞ot for yo͞oTH in ˈpäləsē]
First year operating as a nationally recognized and IRS, CAFD, and PVSA certified nonprofit!
“YIP's first year was an opportunity for us to try out dozens of program ideas and see what works best. It allowed us to learn exactly what innovative ideas work and which don't. Based off of these great programs, our approach is simple, with four prongs we can be sure we build the most effective organization possible.”
Paul, Founder and Executive Director of YIP
