Our mission is to strengthen community engagement and leadership across Chicago through a focus on social justice, criminal justice reform, and the protection of immigrant civil rights.

This initiative helps young people and emerging leaders understand their collective power in the public arena — equipping them to become strong advocates for justice and positive change in their communities.

Fuerza del Sol brings together youth from across the city to collaborate on advocacy efforts, policy discussions, and community-building projects that address real issues facing Chicago’s neighborhoods.
