26,000 TRAINED LEADERS
THE IMPACT OF THE NYC MOVEMENT PROJECT The outcomes of the New York City Movement Project exceeded our goals. The results included 26,000 trained leaders from agencies such as Young Life, Navigators, the Bowery Mission, and Youth For Christ. The aggregated footprint of agencies participating in our Advanced Leadership Intensive was more than 2 million people. More New York City high school students were being reached, more homeless communities were being impacted, and at-risk youth were being influenced by trained leaders. Under the leadership of City to City, the impact of church planting continued to grow exponentially. By 2014, Manhattan church attendance had grown from 3% to 5%. By 2019, the 5% had become 7.5%, representing 100,000 more people attending church in Manhattan than in 1989. Given the influence of New York City, our inaugural Movement Day gathering in 2010 attracted leaders from 34 states and 14 countries.
