Each fall and spring, the YouthAction NYC Community Leadership Course (CLC) introduces aspiring young leaders to government and advocacy by using the city's neighborhoods and City Hall as laboratories for learning. Through polling, field visits, small group activities and meetings with community leaders and elected officials, YCLC participants learn how to address issues that affect their lives and the lives of other New Yorkers. YouthAction NYC helps young people understand social problems, develop recommendations for change, and take action.
The YCLC is offered free of charge to New York City high school students, many of whom receive community service credit for participating in the program. The YCLC meets weekly after school and covers such issues as: education; housing and homelessness; child health and mental health; juvenile justice and youth services; child welfare and child care; and the state and city's decision-making structure and budget process.
