Leadership & Networking Conference, held Nov. 19 at U.S. Cellular Field
By tutormentor2 @ 5:45 PM :: 1598 Views ::  :: Events, Funding and Philanthropy, T/MC |  |
Over 100 people attended the one-day conference. Now the challenge is putting the ideas to work, and finding the operating resources that are needed for each program to operate and use the ideas from the networking and conferene workshops to constantly improve their impact.
The biannual Tutor/Mentor Leadership and Networking Conference is part of an ongoing effort to improve the quality and availability of tutor/mentor programs in areas of Chicago with high concentrations of poverty. Through in-person networking and through the Internet, the conference connects Chicago's program leaders with people and ideas across the country and the globe.
Visit the Conference web site for details and workshop descriptions. If you can be a sponsor, or donor, we need your help so that we are able to plan these conferences further in advance and do more to help Chicago area youth connect with tutors and mentors. Call 312-492-9614 if you have questions or can help.
