About DYCD

The Department of Youth and Community Development (DYCD) was created in 1996 to provide the City of New York with high-quality youth and family programming. Our central task is administering available City, state, and federal funds to effective community-based organizations. 

DYCD supports New York City youth and their families by funding a wide range of high-quality youth and community development programs, including:

 

Beacon Community Centers 

 

Cornerstone Community Centers

 

Immigrant Services

 

Jobs and Internships for Youth

 

Literacy for adults, adolescent and families

 

Out-of-School Time Initiative

 

Runaway and Homeless Youth Outreach

 

Summer Youth Employment Program 

DYCD is also the designated Community Action Agency for New York City, which is the local grantee for the Federal Community Services Block Grant (CSBG). CSBG funding supports a wide variety of programs that address the conditions of poverty.

DYCD is committed to building and expanding on partnerships that generate innovative and practical programs for youth, their families and communities.
