Recent research suggests that unemployment among Black and Hispanic youth in Chicago is higher than anywhere else in America.

The academic and economic potential in inner city communities and students has been largely unrecognized and untapped.

In response, during the summer of 2016 Family Matters’ Boys 2 Men program (which works with young men ages 12-19), launched an employment initiative, Project RISE, in partnership with the Community Church of Wilmette. Six members of Boys 2 Men were placed in local businesses for a six-week job experience. The program encompassed leadership, financial literacy, resiliency skills training and employment readiness, and was enriched with mock interviews and resume support given by members of the church’s congregation.

Last summer the program expanded to include the Teen Girls - in all, 18 Family Matters teens participated. The youth were employed at:

Charmer’s CafeDollop CoffeeLady B BotiqueLittle Beans Cafe

Neon CRMSol CafeSpex CarwashStudio 876

Urban Warrior FitnessV-Tone Fitness

The experience was transformative for the teens involved. In addition to learning new skills and gaining work experience, the jobs have instilled a sense of pride in earning money. The employers sent a strong message to the participants: we value you, we welcome you, and we want to work with you.

“Thank you, for the opportunity to be a part of Family Matters Project RISE Internship Program this summer. It was a great learning experience for the cafe and our entire team. Savion is a wonderful young teen to work with. He was timely, friendly

to all, completed all tasks asked of him, and took initiative when and where needed. Most importantly it was best getting to know him. Savion is a wonderfully cheerful, smart young fella with lots of amazing interest. We wish him the best in all of his endeavors. Today, we took a field trip to Restaurant Depot and I shared with him how I shop for the cafe. He was amazed at the gigantic warehouse. It proved to be a good team building experience for us both.”– Roseanna, Charmers Cafe

The program was widely acclaimed:

• 100% of partners are interested in participating with the program again this summer.

• 100% of partners were encouraged by the progress the interns made over the summer.

• 100% of participants learned and developed new skills.• 100% of participants believed they are better prepared for

school and the world of work as a result of participating in the RISE Program.

• 100% of participants would like to return to the program this summer.

One of the unintended benefits of the program is that it became a poverty reduction strategy in the community as all of the students were able to support their families with their resources.

We are incredibly grateful to the Community Church of Wilmette for its generous support of this program, and to the local businesses that welcomed Family Matters youth.

If you would like to employ Family Matters teens at your business next summer, please contact Chris at chris@familymatterschicago.org.
