Dallas Jessup is a CNN Hero, a black belt martial artist, a recipient of the President's Youth Service Award, founder of a non-profit organization and so much more; all by the age of 17! This highschool senior was kind enough to take time out of her increasingly busy schedule to write us an article about her latest project: Young Revolutionaries Who Rock, A Groundbreaking Call to Service from Some of America's Most Impactful Teenagers. This book highlights passionate youth activists who have found causes near to their hearts, and were proactive about making change happen. In an interview with Youth Development Feature Writer Susan Carney, Jessup shares her experience meeting this generation's most impactful teens.
