There is an undeniable need for our services and as a City Year San Antonio corps member you will have the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of San Antonio youth.

• San Antonio ranks number 62 out of 69 in the "America's Most Literate Cities" study
• 92.2% of the students in the San Antonio Independent School District (SAISD) are economically disadvantaged
• 67.5% of students in SAISD are "at risk"
• The mobility rate in the schools served by City Year San Antonio is 41% compared with the state average of 22%

In addition to making an impact on the lives of children, as a corps member you will also lead fellow citizens in completing high-impact service projects and play a critical role in large-scale City Year events like Make a Difference Day, Global Youth Service Day, Serve-a-thon and Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. You will bring together people from all walks of life- corporate volunteers, community leaders, government and local residents- to share the power of service in uniting diverse individuals and strengthening communities.
