About
River City Youth Foundation (RCYF) is Austin's longest running locally founded youth organization celebrating 39 years. Although RCYF has served neighborhoods all over Austin, today we provide programs and services exclusively for the underserved community of southeast Austin's Dove Springs.
RCYF provides youth and family oriented programs focused on technology training, college and career readiness, mentoring, wellness, and community development. Some of its signature programs include the Dove Springs Coding Academy, TechComunidad, and TechPromotora.
We believe all children can embrace who they are,
can define their future, and can change the world.
