About

The program is rooted in Japanese American values and focuses on engaging regional youth in activities that foster teamwork, sportsmanship, and community involvement.

• Schedule: CYS Board Meetings are held monthly, typically on the 2nd Monday of each month at 8:00pm

Founded in 1961, CYS is an active part of the Japanese American community in San Jose, providing opportunities for youth to develop skills, build self-esteem, and create life-long friendships. The organization is parent-run, with parental participation being a tradition necessary in every facet of the organization. The leadership team includes Kristy Hayashida as President and various commissioners for each activity, ensuring a well-structured program. Membership is open to anyone committed to serving, maintaining, and nurturing the Nikkei community.
