MCC Changemakers Volunteer & Civic Engagement Programming
VOLUNTEER. CONNECT. MOBILIZE.
Changemakers at MCC is a movement of engaged New Yorkers taking action to strengthen the Lower East Side.
VOLUNTEER
Our nationally recognized volunteer initiative creates meaningful short-term, long-term, and occasional volunteer opportunities that meet the strategic needs of our programs while providing individuals a chance to give back and engage with their community. It is a great first step to getting involved.

CONNECT
Democracy only works if we participate, which starts by recognizing the issues we face as a community, as a city, and as a nation and finding ways to build relationships and common understanding with each other. At MCC, we have a variety of ways to build community and connections, and individuals can learn a new skill or more about an important issue through Adult Education classes, workshops and other learning opportunities.
MOBILIZE
At MCC, we are not only committed to ensuring our community has the opportunity to vote but also to advocating for the issues and ideas we hold valuable, while supporting the voices of our community. This will be a place to stay connected and updated on timely issues, and also share with us what is on your mind or how you are advocating for change.
