City Year New York

City Year is a national not-for-profit organization that partners with New York public schools to improve the chance that students will graduate from high school in neighborhoods where one out of every two students is at risk for dropping out. We have evidence that our programs are working. City Year teams of high school graduates, college students and college graduates commit a year of their lives to serve full-time in the public schools. The teams provide critical services like tutoring and after-school programs, serve as role models, and make the schools a more engaging place to learn.
