Since 2011 the organization has been part of umbrella organization
Juventud Presidente, which unites several youth organizations that support Nicaraguan President and Sandinista revolutionary commandante Daniel Ortega.
Besides being considered mainly a peaceful political youth organization, its members—or militants --have been associated with
Sandinista mobs'', parapolice or paramilitary groups to suppress opposition during the times in political power.
