Thanks for joining this group. As you browse around you'll see that T/MC uses it as a workspace where we coach interns and volunteers to understand what our goals are so they can help communicate them via blog articles, graphics and flash animations to a growing network of people who we want to become volunteers and donors or use the information to help build tutor/mentor programs in Chicago or other places.  I encourage others to use this information in their own programs and communities, and to invite volunteers and interns from their own network to participate and do the same type of work, but focused on different cities, or different parts of Chicago.

If you use the site this way you can build a network of South Suburb leaders who grow in the things they do to help kids to careers. 

In the groups section there already is a group focused on the South Suburbs, started by a leader of the YMCA a few years ago. You might join it and build your own network within it.
