Voices of Youth in Chicago Education (VOYCE) is a youth organizing alliance for education and racial justice led by students of color from across the city of Chicago and Illinois. Learn more about VOYCE.

Since student leaders launched VOYCE in 2007, our vision for change has been driven by the belief that those most affected by educational inequities – the students themselves – hold the solutions to creating a high-quality education system. See what we’re working on.

Every year, VOYCE engages over 250 youth leaders in its transformative leadership development model, building a multi-racial, city-wide cohort of youth leaders who have the skills and knowledge they need to be lifelong learners, critical thinkers, and agents of change.
