Mission
The Cities Mentor Project is a collaboration between Chicago universities and Chicago Public Schools. Our mission is to eliminate inequality through education, mentorship and essential social emotional supports. We connect university mentors with public school mentees so that both groups can learn about inequality, the stress that it causes and what we can do to make things better for ourselves and for our city.
We support students learning research-based strategies for:
1. Growing from stress
2. Reaching personal and collective goals
3. Connecting meaningfully with others
4. Changing the world through activism
