Parenting & Community Support

Strengthening Family, Building Community

Rye Youth Council strengthens families by educating parents and caregivers on issues affecting today's youth, and providing strategies to enhance  connections with young people.  Our programs address ways to identify and resolve common parenting challenges, and our approach is always through a lens of social and emotional learning.  


 Rye Youth Council supports children, teachers and parents in teaching social and emotional life skills, in and out of the classroom.  Our RYC Youth Educator teaches an in-class Social and Emotional Learning curriculum to every 3rd and 4th grader in the Rye City School District, and DBT-Step A to the District's 6th graders.


Learn more about social emotional learning here. 


Learn which SEL skills Rye's 3rd graders are learning, and what our 4th graders are learning.   Click here to watch our Youth Educator teach SEL.
