Mission Statement
The mission of City Year Chicago (CYCHI) is to advance educational equity & empower under-resourced communities by providing learning environments that maximize student potential, while developing & deploying the next generation of civic-minded change agents.
Description
City Year was founded in 1988 on the belief that young people can change the world. City Year is an education focused, nonprofit organization that unites young people of all backgrounds for a year of full-time service to keep students in school and on track to graduation. At City Year's 21 urban locations across the United States and two international affiliates, teams of trained young people called corps members serve full-time in schools for the academic year as tutors, mentors and role models. By focusing on attendance, behavior and course performance, which identify students who are at risk of dropping out, corps members are uniquely able to help students and schools succeed.
