CITC NY uses the power of soccer to promote health, education and leadership development and create safe community spaces, where programming is free of charge.

In addition, NYCFC was named 2016 and 2019 MLS Community Relations Team of the Year and Young Leader Yasmine Sanchez was awarded the ESPN Billie Jean King Award.
