La Familia Technology Week 2004, Oct. 3-9, addresses ways Hispanics can bridge the "Digital Divide and gain access to the careers of the 21st century.
One way to help a youth move through school to a career is to connect as a tutor, mentor, leader or donor in a comprehensive, volunteer-based tutor/mentor program. Another way is to lead strategies that draw volunteers from every industry, profession, social and ethnic group to tutor/mentor programs serving K-12 youth in neighborhoods with high concentrations of poverty or poorly performing schools.

Below is a list of Chicago organizations serving youth living in Hispanic neighborhoods. The web sites provide you with plenty of information that you can use to decide how to volunteer your time, talent or treasure to help any of these programs do more to help youth move to careers.
