For hundreds of children and families, CYC is the place where possibility lives. CYC’s early childhood, after-school, and summer programs help children and teens grow socially and emotionally and build skills for the 21st century. By providing opportunities for enrichment and helping them form meaningful relationships, they grow to be caring, successful adults who build bright futures for themselves and their families. CYC serves children and families through six Centers located in Altgeld Gardens, Bridgeport, Bronzeville, Humboldt Park, North Lawndale, and South Shore.
