Description of Organization
Chicago Youth Centers provides a continuum of caring for at-risk, low-income youth. CYC welcomes ages 3-18 into neighborhood-based centers and a residential country camp—oases of encouragement and support for children from neighborhoods where violence, despair and failure are the norm.  CYC invests in youth in underserved communities in Chicago to help them discover and realize their full potential.
