As a democratic, grassroots organization, DSA is continuing the political revolution for the long term. By paying dues, DSA members self-fund our own tools for liberation. No one is turned away for lack of funds: request a dues waiver here.
YDSA is the youth and student wing of DSA. To join YDSA, join DSA at the YDSA dues rate, then get on the membership list of an official YDSA chapter!
