Interagency Coordinating Council on Youth

The Interagency Coordinating Council on Youth (ICC) was created in 1989 to promote interagency collaboration on issues relevant to New York City youth and to support the well being of youth and families by utilizing the City of New York’s multitude of resources.  This is accomplished through partnerships among city-based agencies, community-based organizations and not-for-profit providers to eliminate duplication and where possible promote new initiative. The ICC comprises representatives of each city agency providing services to youth and is directed by DYCD Commissioner Jeanne B. Mullgrav. The ICC meets quarterly; meetings are rotated among member agencies and holds at least one public hearing annually.
