NYC FIRST has run the three FIRST robotics programs since 2000. With over 30 competitions and a range of workshops throughout the year, we are committed to providing high-quality programs and events that allow us to reach as many youth as we can. Our alumni from New York City have used their experiences with us to help change the world at their universities, corporations and communities.
