Center
for Youth Citizenship
Founded in 1984, the Center for Youth Citizenship
(CYC) is a nonprofit 501 (c)(3) organization dedicated to preparing
personally responsible and community-minded youth. CYC believes
schools and communities must teach young citizens the knowledge,
skills and attitudes needed for effective lifelong participation.
The Center offers high quality and cost effective program models
for Kindergarten through 12th grade students and schools that include:
• standards-based materials and resources for classroom instruction;
and
• innovative, high quality training for teachers, administrators,
school staff and schools’ community partners through regional
and on-site training in a variety of content areas.
CYC promotes school, business and community partnerships as a means
to rekindle and sustain a commitment to individual initiative complemented
by dedication to community service, to preserve our democratic traditions,
and expand youth leadership for a highly diverse and changing world.
