Thank you to NYC DYCD Beacon and New York Edge for a wonderful Summer Rising program Community Education Council for District 16 Brooklyn Community District 16 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Yesterday, the students of #UAUIS2 had an amazing experience as they visited #Yankee Stadium to watch the game between Oakland A's and NY Yankees. Attending a #baseball game, especially at a stadium like Yankee Stadium, can be an unforgettable experience. ⚾🌆 #dycd

#Art plays a vital role in education, serving as a powerful tool for expression and comprehension. At #UAUPS18 , students delve into their inner worlds through abstract art during afterschool #dycd 🎨

Our SYEP Youth created our “Call to Action” for the support of the economic and empowerment of our young people, and delivered it directly to our city’s commissioner, Keith Howard, of NYC Youth & Comm..

As part of our #STEM initiative, students explore the fascinating world of #cosmeticengineering during our #UAUIS34 afterschool programming. By understanding the chemistry behind ingredients, they formulate safe and effective products that enhance our appearance #dycd 😊🌟

The Council passed CityFHEPS reforms that for the first time would make the program’s housing vouchers available to young people in DYCD shelters.

Zulaki Reid, who was once homeless, shares how these laws would have helped him find permanent housing sooner.

🌌✨ Happy #StarWarsDay !

DYCD is honored to showcase a piece of Star Wars history in our lobby! Students and staff in the HANAC program at St. Demetrios Greek American School.They generously donated their incredible artwork to DYCD.

To celebrate Financial Literacy Month and Jackie Robinson Day, Citi teamed up with NYC Youth & Comm., the Jackie Robinson Foundation and the Amazin' Mets Foundation to host students for a session on building successful futures and exploring the Jackie Robinson Museum in Manhattan.

The directive still stands. Youth are being forced to stay awake and DYCD continues to add to their laundry-list of examples that demonstrate they do not know what youth experiencing homelessness actually need, and that even when it is spelled out for them- they fall short. 😡

(2/2) positive and profound impact involved fathers have in the lives of their children.

Thank you to DYCD Fatherhood Initiative, Bronx Fathers Take Action, The Real Dads Network, The Dad Gang and all orgs who answer the call to parent across NYC connecting family and community.

Our end of the year celebration for our Domestic Worker members who completed the “We Rise” nanny training, new born care and CPR training is under full swing! ✊🏾✊🏾 #DYCD

🎉🎓🇺🇸Congratulations to our citizenship class students who recently passed the U.S. Citizenship test!

Wow! Another amazing National Night Out. Great to come out and speak with members of the community.

As Chair of Neighborhood Advisory Board 15, I was to say THANK YOU to Mitch Noel of DYCD and NAB-15 Vice Chair, Anthony Batista for all your efforts.

During spring break, students in #UAUPS45 spend their time exploring educational museums and engaging in active activities at #iPlay , the Liberty Science Center, and Urban Air. #dycd 🔬🫧🤓

Today, I toured Good Shepherd Services’ Beacon Program at Truman High School with DYCD Commissioner Keith Howard. It is important that our City continue partnership with school leadership and service providers to achieve school goals and foster opportunities for our youth.

🌟 Congratulations to our very own Joy Richardson, who has been recognized as a recipient of The Williams Bridge NAACP Early Childhood Education Center’s Community Service Award for her outstanding contributions at Edenwald Cornerstone. #DYCD NYC Youth & Comm. 🏆👏

NYC needs more overnight beds for 21-24 year old LGBTQ+ homeless youth. DYCD Commissioner, have a heart for homeless youth. @NYCyouth Mayor Eric Adams Mayor Eric AdamssOffice Coalition for Homeless Youth @aliforneycenter

Thank you Althea Stevens for supporting us in the youth space. We just need New York City Council to also come with us in understanding why these cuts are devastating. We can't have universal afterschool with a $38.8 MILLION cut to DYCD, y'all.
