Youth at Risk Stepping Towards a Promising Future with Mentors

Children in many parts of Chicago experience challenges in their neighborhoods.  Many of these were showcased in Alex Kotlowitz's book, There Are No Children Here, who is highlighted in this video.  However, mentorship programs can have a significant impact on the lives of children and teenagers.  Enlace Chicago is one of source of these services in Little Village -- their work makes a difference in steering kids away from risk and instead towards brighter futures.
