NOYS is a small nonprofit based in Denver, Colorado, dedicated to mobilizing marginalized youth to take leadership roles in addressing health and safety issues that affect them. Its current strategic priority for 2024–2028 centers on transportation equity and mobility justice. The organization supports youth-led action by helping young people identify local safety concerns and develop practical solutions, including a program that invites youth to address pedestrian-safety issues in their neighborhoods. In October 2023 NOYS partnered with YPT-DC to host a presence at an Open Streets event on Georgia Avenue NW, demonstrating collaboration with local partners to engage youth around transportation safety. NOYS's activities and partnerships reflect its role within the non-profit sector focused on youth safety and mobility issues, operating from its Denver base to reach marginalized youth.
