The Green Youth Revolution is a grassroots student organization that revolves around expanding environmental awareness, responsibility and stewardship at the University of Illinois at Chicago and the community. Our movement is centered on ecology, health, human rights, social and environmental justice. GYR not only seeks to educate, involve and heighten awareness in the cause for environmental conservation, but to encourage lifelong social action and volunteerism. In doing so, we work to make positive environmental changes at UIC and on a local, state and national level.

   In its young existence, the Green Youth Revolution has  held informational lectures, workshops, litter cleanups, organic farming, native planting, free movie screenings, organized Ecojamapalooza, amongst other activities and events. We will continue to hold such events and expand on them.

   Let your VOICE be heard and make a difference at UIC for the better.
