ABOUT NEW CITY KIDS
New City Kids’ mission is “loving kids for change to create a community of spiritual, leadership, academic, and musical development.” The program has a two-tiered structure, each tier complementing the other. First, New City Kids operate highly structured academic and performing arts-focused after-school centers for at-risk children ages six to thirteen. But what really makes the After School Center unique is the second tier. Instead of staffing the program with paid adults or volunteers, high school students are employed. These intensive internships are designed to open teens’ eyes to their own amazing abilities and to awaken them to the joy of leadership, the goodness of earning money, the attainability of a college education, and the transforming power of God’s love.

By surrounding them with a community of love and development, we set youth on a path of transformation that will carry them forward for the rest of their lives.
