CityStep

Our Mission:
CityStep is a dedicated undergraduate organization committed to enhancing the educational journey of public school youth. Our mission revolves around introducing students to the transformative power of dance and other creative activities. We believe in fostering self-expression, boosting self-esteem, and promoting mutual understanding through these mediums.

Our Activities:
As part of our mission, CityStep actively engages in various activities, with a primary focus on providing dance classes at the Integrated Refugee and Immigration Services (IRIS) Afterschool Program. Our volunteers commit their time and efforts each week to collaborate with creative students, creating an environment that encourages exploration and expression.

CityStep is proud to contribute through direct service initiatives. By conducting weekly sessions at IRIS Afterschool, we aim to build meaningful connections with the students, utilizing dance and creative activities as tools for personal and communal growth.

Student Leaders:
Our organization is led by passionate individuals dedicated to the cause. Maddalena Ledezma and Annelise Quintero serve as Co-Coordinators/Co-Presidents, guiding CityStep with their vision and commitment. Their leadership ensures that the organization continues to make a positive impact on the lives of public school youth through creative exploration and self-expression.
