In partnership with youth, YAASPA has developed a critical examination of access to ethnic studies as a concurrent enrollment option for minoritized students in Colorado and beyond. The youth-led report details findings from data collected in 2019-20 from Aurora, Colorado.

YAASPA has partnered with youth organizations across the Denver Metro area in order to ensure there are non-partisan youth centered school board candidate engagements. As the customers of education, youth should be at the focal point for school board candidates.
