Monique left for Howard University lastweek, where she has a FULL RIDE
SCHOLARSHIP.Message from Joey Molenda who wasMoniques tutor/mentor for six years.
Maurice has his GED and nowworks in construction...thanks to Mike Mazucca who hasbeen part of his life for more than10 years, and to Tom Li, anotherCC volunteer who helped set up ajob interview for Maurice at acompany where he now works.
Cabrini Connections playeda major role in my life duringmy high school years.Marquita Hall (l) 2004 collegegraduate; with sister, Alicia Hall,who attends NortheasternIllinois University.
Willie was recently informed that he wasaccepted at Morgan State in Baltimore. He isalso receiving a very generous scholarship. Weowe an awful lot to your program and to your stafffor providing such a great place to foster arelationship and afforded us so many greatopportunities. I honestly believe none of this wouldhave been possible without you providing such agreat environment for us to meet each week.
The goal of the Tutor/Mentor Connection is to connect inner city teenswith adults who will act as tutors, mentors, coaches, advocates and
friends in structured programs that encourages many of these adults tostay involved in the lives of kids for many years.
The long term goal is that our teens finish high school and that ourvolunteers help open doors to advanced learning, jobs and careers. Insuch programs, volunteers also must learn to take on roles of leaders,fund raisers, advocates, etc. so that programs constantly expand the
resources available to them.
The T/MC has operated a Cabrini Connections tutor/mentor programin Chicago for more than 15 years. 520 teens and 700 volunteers
have participated for 1 to 7 full years since 1993.On this page are some of our alumni.

We created the Tutor/MentorConnection (T/MC) in 1993 tohelp programs like CabriniConnections grow in every
poverty neighborhood of thecity and suburbs of Chicago.
Chicago
Using the Internet, the T/MC is nowconnected to organizations throughout theworld, and is helping tutor/mentor
programs, and citywide networks grow inChicago and other cities.
In 2005 a new interactive web portal was
created for the T/MC by IUPUI inIndianapolis as part of an partnershipintended to help a T/MC strategy grow inIndiana. This demonstrates a growing abilityto find needed resources and partnersbeyond the Chicago region for actions that
support programs in Chicago.
While we operate a single tutor/mentor program in one neighborhood...

The Tutor/Mentor Connection focuses
daily on one big questions:
What will it take to
assure thatall youth born in
poverty are entering
careers by age 25?
What does it take to make
programs like CabriniConnections available to
more youth, in more places?

We know others are asking the same question.
The T/MC seeks to connect people and groups who are
already spending many hours doing research and
innovating ways to help kids to careers, into one on-
going tutor/mentor learning network.
In such a network people and organizations can shareideas, learn from others, create collaborations, and can
apply new ideas and resources at any time to their own
efforts to help kids in their own community.
My participation in on-line forums is part of the T/MC
network-building strategy.

All kids grow on the same 25year timeline:
From birth to starting a career, takes about 25 years formost kids. There are well defined stages along the way.
For kids living in concentrated, inner-city poverty, there areextra challenges to reaching careers.

These are just a few of the questions that need to be
answered to to achieve this goal:
How do we help good programs be in more of theplaces where they are needed?
How do we help each program have effective, long-term leaders?
How do we increase the number of volunteers fromdifferent work backgrounds who get involved, and
stay involved for many years?
How do we provide consistent, flexible, multi-yearfunding in all locations, not just a few?

Tutor/Mentor Learning Network
Since 1993 we have been building a Chicago areanetwork of programs and supporters and anationwide network of knowledge centers.
We call this a
Tutor/Mentor Learning Network (TMLN)
The following slides show the steps weve taken to
create this network.

school tutor/mentor programs.
The database and web site alsoincludes LINKS to other organizationsworking to help kids succeed in school

For most children, their Birth to Age 25 support system looks like this. Neighbors, family,and a variety of community supports model education as a path to careers, while opening
doors and providing learning experiences as youth grow up.
This is an informal network and it works for most kids.

Youth living in neighborhoods of concentrated, segregated, inner city povertyhave less of these positive learning influences .
While the church is a factor, many church groups do not have a diversity of
workplace volunteers, and many who do have diverse congregations, do nothave strategies to mentor neighborhood children to careers.

As a result youth go to school un prepared to learn and with few adult models showing thevalue of education for jobs and careers. Schools struggle. High School drop out rates exceed
35%. Many careers are learned while in prison or in the juvenile justice system. Few youth goto college and too few of these graduate.

Many of the volunteers who joined Cabrini
Connections between 1993 and 2001helped create the Tutor/Mentor Connection
Through its Cabrini Connectionstutor/mentor program(www.cabriniconnections.net) , theT/MC has helped more than 600 adult
volunteers connect with Cabrini Greenteens.

Step 2: Volunteer Mobilization: Advertising
Many are still connected to teens, helpingthem move through college and into jobs.
The T/MC seeks to create a daily call toaction that increases the number of timesa person is invited to learn more abouttutoring/mentoring in Chicago.

will help build better programs, the sameway that Cabrini Connections volunteershave helped build the T/MC
a) The T/MC is able to lead advertising andpublic education efforts that recruitvolunteers and donors for more than 100
other programs throughout the Chicagoregion.

A successful collaboration orpartnership is built on trustand mutual self-interest.
The T/MC leads an annual sequence ofcapacity-building actions that draw morethan 300 programs together for regularknowledge sharing, resource building.
These actions are essential for buildingtrust and relationships.
No other organization brings so many of thesame programs together as often from yearto year. Without the regular invitations fromthe T/MC, and the constant informationsharing, most organizations would remain
isolated from each other.
