At The Georgio Reddington Team, we take pride in supporting the organizations that help shape and strengthen our community. One of the most impactful local groups making a difference in the lives of young people and families is the Rye Youth Council (RYC) — a cornerstone of youth development, leadership, and wellness in the Sound Shore community.
What the Rye Youth Council Does
The Rye Youth Council is a nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering youth and supporting families through programs that promote leadership, emotional well-being, and healthy decision-making. For more than 60 years, RYC has worked closely with Rye City schools, community partners, and families to ensure that children and teens have the tools and guidance they need to thrive.
RYC’s mission goes far beyond after-school programs. The organization offers workshops, mentorship opportunities, and community service projects that help young people build confidence, character, and compassion. From leadership summits and social-emotional learning workshops to parent education programs and teen internships, RYC plays an essential role in helping kids develop life skills that last long after high school.
Programs and Initiatives
The Rye Youth Council supports a wide range of initiatives designed to reach children, teens, and parents alike. A few highlights include:
- Youth Leadership Programs: Opportunities for middle and high school students to take part in civic engagement, volunteerism, and advocacy — developing leadership and teamwork skills that make a lasting impact.
- Parent Support & Education: Workshops and discussions that address modern parenting challenges, from navigating social media to fostering emotional resilience.
- Community Service & Mentorship: Programs that connect students with service projects, internships, and local volunteer opportunities that build empathy and strengthen community bonds.
- Mental Health & Wellness Resources: RYC provides essential support around stress management, mindfulness, and self-care, ensuring that students have the resources to balance academics, athletics, and personal growth.
