Visit the LINKS section and you can search by category of information, or use the search feature to find information.
The aim of this library is to help leaders, volunteers, donors, youth and parents find information that they want, when they want it.
For students, this can help them with homework, help them explore career goals, or connect with peers around the world.
For program leaders and donors, the links can be used to benchmark what one program is doing against what others do to solve the same problem. If the donor and the non profit are looking at the same information, and the donor is committed to helping kids in the zip code where they program is located. this shared understanding of what ideas would help improve a program should result in the donor providing the funds for the program to do the work of adding this new idea.
The LINKS also provide indepth information that helps everyone understand the challenges of poverty, and see the opportunities to help youth reach their full potential.
There is a lot of information on this web site. However, poverty is a very complex issue, and affects millions of people in the US and around the world. Soluctions cannot be achived by a few minutes of learning. It takes many years of learning, just like getting a college degree and a phd takes four to 8 years of work.
Thus, we hope you not only return to this site often, but that you add new links, rate the links, and discuss the information you find in this discussion forum.
In this way we share the work of helping people find and use information that can lead youth out of poverty and to careers.
If you find broken or inappropriate links, please report them, using the broken link feature.
Thank you to the team from IUPUI for helping rebuild this site over the past month. |

A Chicago Tutor/Mentor Programs Links section has now been added. This is organized by sections of the city and suburbs. If you operate a volunteer-based tutoring and/or mentoring program and your site is not listed, scroll down to the bottom of the page where it says "submit new entry". Click this button and you can add your web site to this list.
If you are from beyond the Chicago region you can still add your web site to this site, but in the LINKS library in the section that says Tutor Mentor Programs.
If you lead a network and would like to create a links category for your city, email tutormentor2@earthlink.net to see how we might collaborate. |
