🗣️YOUTH RESOURCE ALERT!!!!

We’re trying to connect with as many High School Counselors on the Far South Side as possible! We need to ask the counselors for a list of the students that did not graduate (aka dropped out) AND a list of students with attendance of 30% or less.

This will help us connect them to the resources we have available in the “Back to Our Future” Program.

If you know ANY students who can benefit from this program please reach out and connect. Information is located on the attached flyer.”

‘Excuse After Excuse’: Black and Latino Developers Face Barriers to Success A racial wealth gap and discrimination that sets a higher bar for would-be developers seeking loans have contributed to the lack of representation.

Pullman is not only the home to Chicago’s first National Park Service site, Pullman National Historical Park and America’s first and only Black Labor History Museum, The National A. Philip Randolph Pullman Porter Museum. It has also always historically been a Factory town where thousands have found gainfully living wage employment.

To date, Pullman is still a Factory town. With 18 different Factories, it’s not hard to realize why so much attention is on this Nationally designated Historic District.

1. Walmart
2. Gotham Greens
3. SC Johnson, A Family Company
4. Pullman Innovations
5. Kellogs
6. Pullman Sugar
7. Imperial Zinc Corp
8. Whole Foods Market; Midwest Distribution
9. Lost Illinois Manufacturing
10. method products
11. Amazon.com Distribution Center
12. Chicago Department Of Streets and Sanitation; Bureau of Sanitation
13. ServiceMaster Restore
14. Ferrara Candy Shop
15. Atlas Bleachers
16. The University of Chicago Press
17. Good Foods
18. Dutch Farms
19. DaBecca Foods

With that being said it’s important we stay engaged to make sure residents have the skill set and experience needed to be hired in these factories. Just living in the neighborhood isn’t enough. That’s why we’ve launched workforce development workshops and feeder programs to help prepare our residents. If you want to help see this process work for the entire community sign up to be apart of the Solution by helping coordinate, implement and enforce a “Community Benefits Agreement” for the entire 9th Ward the City as a whole can use as a Prototype.
