City Year’s Research and Learning Agenda
The goal of City Year’s Research and Evaluation Team is to help ensure that City Year—and the broader educational community—can more effectively support students and adults who work in schools, from AmeriCorps members to teachers.
Download the research agendaTo help guide our work, City Year has developed a Research and Learning Agenda to serve as a roadmap for our future research and learning.
Our agenda, which is updated regularly, specifies the research questions that will guide City Year’s current and future projects, allowing us to continually improve our services by applying existing evidence of what works, generating new knowledge, and innovating on new approaches to program delivery through an equity-based lens.
Through our research and evaluation work, we aim to understand how to create learning environments and educational systems that accelerate educational equity by enabling all students to reach their full potential. We do so by exploring our outcomes on multiple levels, from our impact on systems, schools and students to the effectiveness of our practices to our impact on our AmeriCorps members and alumni and the communities we serve.
