Chicago LAMP partners with a variety of schools and civic organizations in and around the North Lawndale community. School counselors and administrators at the elementary, middle and high school levels are our primary partners in identifying children to participate in our programs. Civic organizations such as the YMCA, daycare centers and fire departments help provide summer employment opportunities for our youth. Chicago LAMP partners with local churches, universities, and civic organizations to recruit mentors, and we graciously accept support from various other organizations throughout the year.
