Welcome To City Access New York

City Access New York promotes lifelong access to educational, vocational and cultural programs for New Yorkers of all abilities. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that identifies barriers to participation in schools and in the community and adapts the content and delivery of programs to the diverse needs of people with disabilities.

The Tenement Museum has been working with the Career Discovery Project for the past four years. Over that time this relationship has been beneficial to the Museum and I believe to the students as well. All the students I have worked with brought extremely valuable expertise to the Museum that we have used to continually improve programming for visitors who are blind or have low vision. The students receive work experience and supportive connections as they build their resume. In my opinion, it is wonderful that students are paid for their work and expertise while still being extremely cost efficient for a small museum like the Tenement. However, my favorite part of the project by far is getting to know the students. They have been pleasant to work with, professional, kind, interesting, and eager to help. I highly recommend the Career Discovery Project.
