About Organization

Chicago Youth Centers (CYC) was founded in 1956 by visionaries Sidney Epstein and Elliott Donnelley. CYC is dedicated to improving the lives of at-risk children and teens through a variety of innovative and effective programs that help them build the academic, social, and emotional well-being competencies and achievements needed to be successful - from early childhood education to and through college.

Chicago Youth Centers' College and Career Readiness services provide educational support and career exposure to help youth access and succeed in college. CYC's five decades of experience has shown that at-risk children will succeed - if only given the chance. Your generosity is helping to provide that chance.
