As a City Year corps member, you can expect to be challenged both personally and professionally. Your City Year will be demanding – so you’ll have to be strong, disciplined, and committed to serve 1,700 hours over a 10-month period.
However, your year as a City Year corps member will also be one of the most rewarding experiences of your life. You will have the opportunity to:
- Pledge to serve schools and communities
- Be a role model, tutor and mentor to kids
- Plan and run after-school programs
- Coordinate and lead community service projects
- Engage citizens to volunteer
- Be inspired by your teammates, an energetic and idealistic culture and build friendships that will last a lifetime
- Develop leadership skills, by leading and following
- Prove that young people can change the world
