 “City Year is an immersion program. You're immersed in the lives of others, in the greatest social issues of our time, and in the capacity to make a difference. Ten months later, if you’ve done your job right, you’ll find yourself exhausted with the impact you’ve made.”

-Ashley Miller, Senior Corps Member
City Year Washington, DC
