Chicago's heart beats in its neighborhoods. For over 90 years, the Chicago Area Project has worked tirelessly to strengthen these communities.
This is the kind of activity we must work to prevent. Give the kids in your neighborhood safe and fun activities do they don’t have to be part of these dangerous and sometimes violent/deadly ones

On Saturday, January 10, West Town Committee member Johnny Harris conducted an outreach visit to the National Guard facility at 1551 North Kedzie Avenue as part of our strategic organizing efforts to recruit young people ages 16–24. The visit included a dynamic presentation highlighting the wide range of services, resources, and activities available to youth in the West Town community. Attendees were introduced to job opportunities through the Illinois Youth Investment Program, life skills development, financial literacy and youth mentoring, career exploration, and network-building workshops. The presentation also emphasized educational resources offered via Zoom, opportunities to engage as Community Committee and Youth Committee volunteers, and access to critical social, educational, and human services resources designed to support and empower young people.
