Community Change, Inc.’s (CCI) youth programs have been the key components of proposals that have won more than $45 million in local, county, state and federal funding competitions. This includes NYSED’s 21st Century Community Learning Centers, Extended School Day/School Violence Prevention, and My Brothers’ Keeper, as well as OCFS’s former Advantage Afterschool and Empire Afterschool Programs.
CCI’s project-based, SEL programs are aligned with the Positive Youth Development Framework and address the following areas:
• Career Awareness • Civic Engagement • Culinary Arts
• Cultural Relevance • Financial Literacy • Healthy Relationships
Teacher PAI is our artificial intelligence-powered resource that makes replicating our youth development programs fast and easy.
Community Change, Inc. is certified as a New York State Minority Business Enterprise, and is also certified to provide Continuing Teacher and Leader Education (CTLE) professional development.
