News from Humboldt Park: The after school homework program is going well. The children are coming more consistently every week and receiving excellent tutoring help and academic enrichment each day. Many of the children's teachers have agreed to partner with us and are providing academic information and support for helping the students in the after school program. We are also able to visit each child's classroom which builds so much trust with the students and helps the community schools in the neighborhood.
