​ABOUT


Picture
 Silvia Young is a California-based, world renowned change agent in female empowerment. Her work explores trauma and develops communications to create political and societal change. Raised in the uprising of 1970s/80s South London, Young saw first-hand systemic abuses related to immigration, fascism and propaganda. The underground movement of creative rebellion was as much her coming-of-age survival as it was Brixton's historic catalyst for community peace and unity. This profound experience shaped her world view, and showed her the parallels facing oppressed communities as she navigated her own adversity in gender-based violence, white-washing and medical gaslighting. Now living in the world's standard of democracy, the U.S., Young's hope for a better tomorrow and a more compassionate, tolerant world never faded, she persisted.

An award-winning public relations strategist, Young is also a best-selling author, activist, speaker, and founder of the FemTruth™ movement, which includes a growing catalogue of anthologies and educational work to support FemTruth Policy California, (a grassroots coalition supporting a series of bill proposals aimed at childhood education and inclusion, transparency in industry, and a path to financial independence on behalf of endometriosis, adenomyosis, interstitial cystitis, polycystic ovary syndrome, premenstrual dysphoric disorder, fibroids, adverse childhood experiences, infertility, post traumatic stress disorder patient advocates and supporters).

Young is invited to speak at many groups and campuses regularly including UC Berkeley, UC Davis, San Francisco State University, the National Organization for Women's (NOW) conference, both state and national, Women's March Foundation, International Women's Day, collegiate and feminist clubs, and community advocacy groups. Her work has led her to be quoted, interviewed and photographed on matters of social justice, womxn's health and intersectional human rights. In 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020 Young was nominated for Patient Leader and Child Educator WEGO Health Awards, and 2018 CA-NOW's Gender Equity Awards.

Young strives to contribute her expertise to as many related campaigns and audiences as possible promoting humanity and democracy.

​"​I have empathy for the voiceless; creating appropriate language and space for these oppressed communities to have societal representation and meaningful protections is my life's work."
