About MyCom

MyCom is a network of people who believe youth development is a direct path to healthy, safe communities for everyone. The MyCom network builds strengths in young people and their neighborhoods by connecting existing programs and resources, and funding opportunities for positive growth. MyCom also encourages all sectors of society to take responsibility for children’s development and transition into productive adulthood.

The Cleveland Foundation partnered with public and nonprofit agencies to launch MyCom Cleveland more than a decade ago, after conducting research to identify and evaluate existing programs and services for youth in Greater Cleveland. Today, MyCom aims to inspire and prepare Greater Cleveland’s young people, kindergarten through graduation, to reach their full potential and become good citizens. It exposes kids to a variety of activities and experiences that allow them to explore new interests and learn new skills. It connects them to a network of caring and committed adults – teachers, mentors, employers, and others – who offer guidance and encouragement. Learn more about MyCom Cleveland here
