Communist Youth Movement (in Dutch: Communistische Jongeren Beweging) is a political youth organization in the Netherlands. The CJB was founded on September 21, 2003, as an independent, though politically allied, continuation of the youth of the New Communist Party of the Netherlands, NCPN Jongeren (NCPN Youth). It is the official youth organization of the NCPN, and it publishes Voorwaarts! (Forward!), an online magazine.

Its membership count remains unpublished, but the growth of the CJB, due to their activity, has shown to be a factor of the revitalization of their mother party. Its members are present at most demonstrations and massorganisations that the NCPN and other European communist youth groups participate in, as well as active in Cuban solidarity campaigns.
