The Florida Young Democrats of Indian River

The Florida Young Democrats of Indian River are the local chapter of the Florida Young Democrats (FYD). We are a political organization dedicated to securing the future of the Democratic Party in Indian River County along with the Democrats of Indian River.

We encourage young Democrats to serve as leaders in their communities, identifying and developing the next generation of Democratic voters and leaders, and ensuring the education and turnout for youth in local, state and national elections.

The Young Democrats of Indian River County are looking for new members and leadership to achieve their goals of advocating for young, democratic values in IRC.  If you are interested in joining, please email office@democratsofindianriver.org
