Community Highlight

Spring 2003 -- GEAR UP parents are serious about their children's education.

Parents meet for a full day of workshops on developing positive parenting skills.

This is a Roosevelt University event, but Northeastern Illinois University Network helps out by providing both a presenter, Gail Cruise-Roberson and the space at the Chicago Teachers' Center. Chicago GEAR UP partners are crossing network boundaries, leveraging resources to stretch funding dollars.
