IMPACT: A Multidisciplinary Journal Addressing the Issues of Urban Youth

IMPACT is a multidisciplinary journal fusing research, practice and policy to advance the success of urban youth.

The journal was founded by two Berkeley graduate students and is dedicated to critically evaluating the reasons why urban youth are disproportionately enduring the brunt of our failing social policies. Its goal is to bring the insights of scholar and practitioners together in one journal, so that their work may collectively inspire legislators and policymakers to achieve viable solutions to this growing problem.

Each issue focuses on a particular theme and examines that topic from a variety of disciplines, including first hand accounts from the youth in our communities. The issues often coincide with the themes of the Interdisciplinary Graduate Student Committee on Youth Policy’s Annual Youth Policy Conference. We invite academics, practitioners, and youth to share their experiences, research, and recommendations.
