Find Your Chapter

Want to get involved? Looking for the nearest Youth M.O.V.E. Chapter to connect and grow? Want to start a chapter in your state?

Our chapters are our eyes and ears to the local work going on in our states and communities. Through our chapters, we are able to sustain the youth voice and create a lasting movement across the country. Everday, our chapters put on various events and drives to educate, motivate, and inspire other youth to get involved in their local community.

Below is a list of those chapters and the youth coordinator/engagement specialist that is the point of contact for that chapter. If you have any questions or you are unable to reach any of the chapters listed below, please let us know by giving us a call at 240.403.1907.

Below, you'll also find a collection of our statewide chapters. These chapters are youth groups that have either expanded across the whole state or have an ambitious goal to want to within the next couple of years and have already declared so. Going statewide helps further our mission and vision at both the local and national levels. If you are thinking of starting a youth group in your state, we highly encourage you to check out these chapters first to see if you can build any partnerships with them.

If you don't see a chapter in your state, start one! You can find all the information you will need to start right here.
