The Coatesville Youth Initiative is an independent non-profit organization committed to training youth leaders, enhancing family relationships, building community collaboration, and encouraging prevention education. CYI started as a project of the Brandywine Health Foundation in 2008 as a response to feedback from the community and most importantly, from Coatesville youth. CYI was incorporated as an independent organization in July, 2013. How are we making a difference? CYI leverages the talents, expertise and diversity throughout our community to build trust, work together, and share resources. We are committed to nurturing partnerships at all levels to provide the highest caliber of programming and support for Coatesville Youth.
