During the COVID-19 crisis millions of people are restricted to staying at home, making the Internet and TV, along with the telephone, their main means of connection to the larger world. 

During this time the Tutor/Mentor Connection/Institute, LLC's  information-based resource library can be a useful source of information and ideas to help people find their way through these challenging times and to help build and sustain volunteer-based tutor/mentor programs that will still need to be reaching youth in high poverty neighborhoods of Chicago and other cities once this crisis is over. 

Use the resources on this web site to support your learning.  Do a Google search using "tutor mentor" and any of the words in the tag cloud below, and find articles intended to stimulate and influence thinking of leaders across Chicago and the rest of the country.
