Review for Cabrini Connections, Chicago, IL, USA

Rating: 4 stars  

I've been lucky enough to interact with both Cabrini Connections and Tutor/Mento Connection. Cabrini Connections has a group of extremely dedicated volunteers. They do great things for the youth in the program, going above and beyond traditional tutoring to provide clubs and opportunities for the kids to experience the world around them. The dedication to providing education about professions and opportunities helps the kids to develop networks that will help them throughout their lives. Tutor/Mentor Connection also quite impresses me. The organization has done a great job of providing resources for tutoring and mentoring organizations. While much of the visual information is specifically geared towards Chicago, the organization has also compiled and showed willingness to share information nationwide. The volunteer-created maps help to visualize the severe need for tutoring and mentoring programs throughout Chicago, while the Conferences and databases help the programs to connect with each other and share experiences.
