Reformed Political Party Youth
The Reformed Political Party Youth, officially abbreviated as SGPJ or SGP-jongeren, is the youth wing of the Dutch Reformed Political Party, an orthodox Calvinist political party.
The SGPJ is officially independent and established as Landelijk Verband van Staatkundig Gereformeerde Studieverenigingen in 1934 in Rotterdam and is with over 12,000 members in 2011 the largest political youth organization of the Netherlands.
In 1987 women were allowed to become members and in 2007 a woman was elected for the first time to the board.Magazines
