The Chicago State University Illinois Center for Education Equity invites you to our second annual equity conference: Transforming Access: Strategies & Stories for Black Student Success. Against the backdrop of a 37% decline in Black student enrollment in Illinois and persistent college attainment gaps across race and socioeconomic groups, cross-sector action is needed to change course. Please join us on Tuesday, October 22, 8:30 am - 1:30 pm to learn from thought leaders, practitioners, students, and employers about strategies for improving college access and success for Illinois' Black learners. The event is free but space is limited - register t.ly/9m8-C
关于我们
The Chicago Urban League (Urban League) was one of the first affiliates of the National Urban League organized in this country to address the needs of African Americans migrating from the rural South to the northern cities in unprecedented numbers at the dawn of the 20th century. The Chicago Urban League works to achieve equity for Black families and communities through social and economic empowerment. Since 1916, the Chicago Urban League—through collaborative community, corporate and civic relationships—has helped people find jobs, secure affordable housing, enhance their educational experiences and grow their businesses. We are passionate advocates for economic and racial equity for Black Chicagoans. The impact of the Urban League's 10+ decades of service to Chicagoans is beyond measure, but it is illustrated by the fact that upon hearing the name of the organization, community members often comment on the positive impact the Chicago Urban League has had in their lives. As one of the largest affiliates in the nation, the Chicago organization remains a leader in the Urban League movement.

?? Project 2025 is a dangerous plan to transform this country into its most oppressive, authoritarian, and negligent form. Your rights, safety, and well-being are at risk if extremists get their way and implement this agenda, which is a well-thought-out ~900-page plan that could become our reality.
