Staff and Volunteers
Chinatown Youth Initiatives would not be possible without the help of our staff and volunteers. Our volunteers take on a host of challenges, from providing guidance to our youth, advising to our programming, and teaching ESL classes, to supporting CYI in its long-term development, and keeping in touch with our alumn, each and every one of our volunteers is a valued member of our community.
If you would like to get involved with CYI, please e-mail as at info@cyinyc.org
