YOPP grew out of Dalun Youth Association to become an umberalla organisation for other community youth associations in the Kumbungu District. The founders saw the need to create common platform where rural youth could build joint capacities, mobilise resources and advocate for youth inclusion in traditional and democratic power issues. The original associations were Dalun, Zangballung, Voggu, Kumbungu, Tibung and Gbullung. Later Woribugu, Yilonayili, Yogu and Bogunayili joined.
