City Year Chicago Site Visit
Jul 02, 2008 Posted by Grace Johnson
Last week, Glenna and I visited the Chicago City Year’s office downtown. We were welcomed by Jessica Herman, the Civic Engagement Manager, into a large office complex, equipped to provide for this year’s graduating class of eighty-seven corps members along with its extensive supporting staff. After visiting other smaller AmeriCorps programs, Glenna and I were impressed by the size of CY and the space it occupies. Jessica gave us the grand tour, showing us posters painted by the children CY serves, large Chicago maps high-lighting participating schools, and various conference rooms, each named after a national service hero of the past. Later, Glenna and I sat down with Jessica and several other staff workers to hear more about the daily operations of CY as well as the personal stories which motivate the staff and the volunteers in their wok. I found it interesting that all of them had started out as corps members where they had had their lives significantly impacted, causing them to choose service as a long-term career.
