OUR MISSION
Committed to Making a Difference
Our overall mission is to fight for those who constantly face discrimination and injustice simply by their color of their skin or by there legal status. To continue on, we wish to be the voice of those who are in fear of speaking. By using our voices, we will fight for the injustice and we will NOT stay quiet. We Stand Together.

SOFIA ROBLES
Social Media Team
Sofia Robles is a 15 year old incoming junior at Palm Desert High School. The reason why she decided to join U.Y.W.S. is because she is infuriated with the callous and inhumane injustices occurring in the world. She truly believes the most violent element in society is ignorance, and hopes to spread the idea that with knowledge comes power, and how knowledge can ultimately have the power determine someone’s life. Her goal in the organization is to spread that knowledge to inform others on immigration, women’s rights, and the violence and treatment our black and brown communities are coerced to undergo! She believes it is vital that the community MUST SPEAK OUT AND ADVOCATE FOR CHANGE!
