Chicago Area Volunteer-Based Tutor and/or Mentor Programs

Since 1993 we have collected and shared information about Chicago area, volunteer-based tutor and/or mentor programs that operate in the non-school hours.  The site where this information has been hosted is now being repaired so the list is temporarily available on this site.

The list was published in a printed directory from 1994 to 2003 then in an on-line directory since then.  We've attempted to show what areas each program serves, using maps and using list segmentation.
