This map illustrates how T/MC seeks to show areas
of city where tutor/mentor programs are needed, along with locations of
existing organizations in the city
where non-profits provide some form of tutoring and/or mentoring. View pdf showing T/MC GIS maps-a unique strategy to understand needs and distribute resources Many Chicago Tutor/Mentor programs are listed in the Program Locator and Program Links section of this site. At some point in the future you will be able to click on this map and get contact information for these programs. The T/MC goal is that one day each site be a TQM program, with a full range of learning and a diverse mix of volunteers, donors and business partners, each with a long-term commitment to mentor youth who participate in these programs into jobs and careers. For that to happen the leadership and resource infrastructure of tutor/mentor programs must dramatically change and the actions of donors, business partners and other stakeholders must also change. Programs must become learning organizations, constantly borrowing from the best work others are doing, while learning from their own experience. Resource providers must become "distributors", creating a flow of volunteers, dollars, technology, training and visibility into every tutor/mentor site in the city. |
