City Year is an education-focused, nonprofit organization that unites young people of all backgrounds for a year of full-time service to keep students in school and on track to graduation. At City Year’s 23 urban locations across the United States and two international affiliates, teams of trained young people called corps members serve full-time in schools for the academic year as tutors, mentors and role models. This year in Los Angeles, 210 corps members are serving in 17 Los Angeles schools working to help tackle the dropout crisis.
Service Days are another way for City Year LA to expand its outreach to students in Los Angeles. Family Service Days allow volunteers of all ages to come out and serve in their community, working to make schools across LA more beautiful and engaging places for students to learn and play.
