Making the most of our partnership

Contact our sites

Download the 2023-2024 list of staff contacts at each of our City Year sites. This list gets updated periodically throughout the year, so if you download an earlier version it is recommended to reference this page for the most updated list.

Here you’ll find suggested opportunities to connect with the corps. You can use these ideas to engage City Year site staff points to help assess what local virtual opportunities may exist (as well as others the site point may recommend).

Promotional channels

Partnership page on City Year website (cityyear.org): Please review your existing partnership page and/or partner listing to ensure all details are current and correct.

City Year Boilerplate Language:

City Year is a trailblazing, youth-powered organization with a dual mission: expanding educational equity for students furthest from opportunity and developing diverse leaders through national service. Research shows the more time a student spends with a City Year AmeriCorps member serving as student success coach, the better the student outcomes—academically, socially, and emotionally. A public-private partnership, City Year is a proud member of AmeriCorps, operating in 29 U.S. cities with international affiliates in the U.K. and South Africa. Today, 40,000 alums continue to lead and serve where they live and work. Learn more about City Year’s six areas of impact: www.cityyear.org.

Submitting program data

Each year, we ask our partners to share information on City Year alums who’ve gone on to work, learn or serve with you.
