Community-Based Anchor Partners
To serve our Hope Parent Scholars, Hope Chicago partners with the Chicago Urban League and Instituto del Progreso Latino, two organizations recognized for their work in serving families and communities, to provide direct support. We refer to these organizations as our community-based anchor partners because they are rooted in the communities we serve.
