About Us
City Year, a proud member of the AmeriCorps network, unites a diverse corps of young adults, ages 17 to 24, to serve as a tutors, mentors and role models full-time for ten months in 25 cities across the nation. City Year’s mission is to build democracy through citizen service, civic leadership and social entrepreneurship. It is through service that we can demonstrate the power and idealism of young people, engage citizens to benefit the common good, and develop young leaders of the next generation. Every 26 seconds in the U.S. a student drops out of high school and City Year’s young leaders are working to reverse this trend.
