MOVE Texas

MOVE Texas is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization dedicated to building political power among underrepresented youth communities in Texas. Founded in 2013 by students at The University of Texas at San Antonio, it has grown to become a leading group for voter registration and engagement in the state. The organization aims to mobilize, organize, vote, and empower young people, particularly those traditionally underserved, by increasing their participation in elections and developing them into lifelong leaders. MOVE Texas focuses on several key areas, including voter registration and engagement, leadership development, and issue advocacy. The organization has successfully registered over 150,000 young eligible voters and has significantly boosted youth voter turnout. It provides programs that teach critical organizing skills, educates young voters on important community issues, and campaigns for reforms that strengthen local communities. Through its civic engagement campaigns, MOVE Texas encourages young Texans to actively participate in democracy and fosters a commitment to civic involvement.
