create a YP group

Create Your Own YP Group.

Activism at the community level is so important because it empowers every person who gets involved. Creating your own YP Group in your city of town is the perfect way to be an agent for positive change. Confronting blight is about fixing things that are broken, it’s about bringing people together in a healthy pursuit of repairing the places where we live and work. You can make a big difference where you live by joining with us, and we can work with you every step of the way.

Please reach out to us at: info@youngpreservationists.org to find out how to become part of the Young Preservationists Association and start a new chapter in your community.

How it Works.

What’s the first step?

The first step is to have a passion for the historic architecture in your community, especially the sites that have come under neglect.

How many people does it take to create a YP Group?

It just takes you and a friend.

How do I get started?

Just reach out to us and we’ll provide you with all the information and tools that you need.

What’s the next step?

The next step is to plan a get-together with any of your friends who might like to be involved, either in person or virtually, and then discuss the places that you think should be saved. It’s about beginning a conversation that should be taking place in your community and you take it one step at a time. Having some pizza on hand never hurts!
