About my organization
Since 1970, CYC has set the standard for awareness and activism in the Asian community. Originally founded to address the problems of juvenile delinquency and gang violence in Chinatown, CYC has grown to encompass behavioral health, education, intervention, leadership development, street outreach and workforce development in all our programs. We offer services directed at responding to the complex set of issues the youth in our community face including acculturation, difficulties in school, economic hardship, substance abuse, and gang involvement. Our educational enrichment, leadership building, and job-readiness programs have earned CYC a unique reputation as a key agency for Asian youth services in San Francisco.
About the programs we offer
CYC Computer Clubhouse is a collaboration with Intel, Adobe, and the Boston Museum of Science to help youth acquire technological tools necessary for personal and professional development. Vision: To impact youth with highly-motivated, enthusiastic, and caring volunteer mentors in an open non-structured safe environment equipped with cutting-edge, state-of-the-art hardware and software allowing youth the freedom for self-exploration while learning, exchanging experiences and developing bonds with mentors from the community-at-large.
