NYAC was founded in 1993 as the National Advocacy Coalition on Youth and Sexual Orientation, a project of the Hetrick-Martin Institute. The purpose of the organization was to support LGBTQ young people and their allies in adding their voices to the growing LGBTQ rights movement. The group expanded when it added the Bridges Project, the first national informational clearinghouse for LGBTQ youth and the organizations that serve them founded by the American Friends Service Committee.[1] A membership organization, NYAC attracted organizations from all over the country. One the hallmarks of the organization were the national and regional summits. The National Summit, usually held in Washington, DC attracted hundreds of youth advocates and allies each year, culminating in visits to Congress. At its height NYAC had over ten staff and a $1M+ budget.{{Citation needed|date=February 2011}} Much of its work centered on both social justice advocacy work, LGBTQ youth organization capacity building, LGBTQ youth leadership development, and HIV/STI prevention and education work..
