Learning never stops, and neither do we.

Through Lend-A-Hand Tutoring, we provide free one-to-one tutoring and mentoring to students from two public schools in Chicago: the Montessori School of Englewood and Bond Elementary School . The students meet with their tutors every week at the Chicago Bar Association for literacy-focused sessions. More than 80 percent of our volunteers are lawyers. 
Lend-A-Hand Tutoring at the CBA is taking on new volunteers through December for our one-to-one tutoring program. Tutors can come on Tuesday evenings from 5:30 to 7:00 p.m. at The Chicago Bar Association (321 S. Plymouth Court). The program is sponsored by Lawyers Lend-A-Hand to Youth, but you do NOT have to be a lawyer to participate.
For a glimpse into the meaningful personal bonds Lend-A-Hand tutors can develop with students, watch the video below: Lend-A-Hand student Jada and her tutor, Matthew Locke of the Illinois Commerce Commission, have worked together for eight years. As Jada prepares to graduate from the Montessori School of Englewood and head to high school at Catalyst Maria next year, she and Matthew wrote letters to each other to express what their time together has meant to them.
