CYC-Rebecca K. Crown Youth Center joined the neighborhood in 1977 during a period of active community revitalization. A generous gift from the Arie and Ida Crown Memorial Fund allowed CYC to join the community's self-help efforts by investing in South Shore's children. CYC adopted and renovated what was formerly the South Shore Community Center, making it the CYC-Rebecca K. Crown Youth Center. Today, CYC-Crown gives more than 200 children ages 15 months - 18 years in South Shore access to the robust educational, cultural, and social experiences needed to succeed in school, their daily lives, and ultimately the workforce. CYC-Crown is home to a Maker Lab for STEAM programs, a music recording and editing studio, and of course, expertly-staffed classrooms. CYC is proud to teach and mentor the South Shore's next generation of leaders and citizens every day at CYC-Rebecca K. Crown Youth Center.
