Believe In What’s Possible

Gen Z is being gaslit by politics. We are told we are disengaged - that we don’t care, don’t listen, and don’t vote - when in fact, we have never had access to the tools, space, or power we need to engage.
Together, we can change this.

Youth-led movement making

Unprecedented times demand unparalleled leadership. Believe In What’s Possible is a youth-led, nonpartisan nonprofit working to reveal, center, and support youth leadership in Minnesota politics. We train, organize, and mobilize our peers to build youth power and sustainably increase youth voter turnout in Minneapolis, St. Paul, and St. Cloud, MN.

Our annual youth fellowship, The People’s Studio, teaches community organizing and art/content creation. Apply today to become a leader in your city!

Scheme Space

Our monthly youth-led social space for political discussion, relationship-building, civic education, co-conspiring, and fun. No political experience necessary!

  • “I grew up in a political climate that hasn’t created much room for imagination and community building. Having a space to celebrate our voices and dreams outside of simply voting has changed my relationship with civic engagement entirely."

    Nick Broske (he/him), age 21

  • “BIWP gives me hope in times when I think that so many things are going wrong. It provides a safe atmosphere to learn, grow, and meet new friends. I don’t feel judged for not knowing certain things about my community or neighborhood."

    Richa Vijayvergiya (she/her), age 25

  • "BIWP has given me a way to be politically engaged in a way that is healthy and sustainable, because they provide a space for necessary conversations."
