This PDF shows some of the graphics created over the past 20 years to communicate ideas and strategies for creating and sustaining volunteer based, non-school, tutor, mentor and learning programs in high poverty areas of Chicago and other cities. Find many more in T/MI blogs and web sites.

1. I became a volunteer tutor in 1973 and led a program from 1975-2011.
I want to help many have same volunteer tutor/mentor experiences as I have enjoyed.
See my history of involvement: http://www.tutormentorexchange.net/dan-bassill

2. I communicate ideas and strategies with graphics that originate on
PowerPoint.
These are then embedded on blog articles and PDF strategy presentations that
you can find in links at
* http://www.tutormentorexchange.net
* http://tutormentor.blogspot.com
* http://mappingforjustice.blogspot.com
* Pinterest.com/tutormentor
* http://www/twitter.com/tutormentorteam
And many more sites.
This pdf is a collection of just a few of those PowerPoint pages. Do a search on
Google, Bing or another platform for the words “tutor/mentor” then look at the
images. You'll find many more.
I invite others to create their own versions of these, improve them, and share
them, so more people are seeing and responding, and using the ideas to solve
complex problems, like helping kids born in poverty be starting jobs/careers 25-
30 years later.

3. We're all in business of helping kids move through school.....

9. Encourage Volunteers to Look
Beyond Role as Tutor or Mentor
Browse sections of http://tinyurl.com/TMC-Library
Provide learning resources so volunteers know where and why youth tutor/mentor programs
are most needed, along with root causes of poverty that they could help remove.

10. If “It takes a village” to raise a child, where do they connect?
Needs:
1 - build/maintain information base
2 - draw people to information on ongoing basis
3 - support conversations, learning in many places
4 - help solutions grow that apply learning in targeted locations
5 - resources to support steps 1-4 Connect on Twitter @tutormentorteam
See visuals and conversation starters
at http://tutormentor.blogspot.com
Groups, like
Engineers,
Faith Group, etc.

11. You can do this, too!
I'm not paid to draw attention tothese Chicago organizations.
I do it because youth in high povertyareas need support of wellorganized, volunteer based, non-school programs.
The programs need support, too!
