What is the role of the carrot, the rabbit, and the dogs in this graphic? The carrot represents good ideas, or best practices. If we can give public recognition to the good work done by different businesses, non profits, political leaders and others to help youth development, tutor, mentor and learning programs focused on economically disadvantaged youth, we can stimulate competition and constant improvement in what is done to help make high quality youth-serving programs available in more places, for more years. Do you agree with this concept? This has been the Tutor/Mentor Connection strategy since 1993 (and the Tutor/Mentor Institute, LLC since 2011). View the presentation and see how the T/MC web library can be used. Note: While Tutor/Mentor Institute, LLC focuses on helping youth in high poverty areas, the role of information libraries described in this presentation applies to solving any local, global problem. ]]>

News stories have highlighted inequity, violence and poverty for decades with occasional periods of outrage when editorial writers demand action from everyone. This PDF shows a plan created by a small Chicago non profit to address this problem with consistent, on-going marketing and program development. While the plan has never been well-supported in Chicago, it could be a brand new idea in any other city. This presentation shows materials that were used in 1997 to create a video that was shared by the Tutor/Mentor Connection at the 1997 Presidents' Summit for America's Future, held in Philadelphia. Dan Bassill, founder of the Tutor/Mentor Connection, was one of 10 people representing Chicago, and the Tutor/Mentor Connection was one of 50 Teaching Examples invited to have booths at the Summit. The video created from these slides shows a strategy developed from 1993 to 1997 and that was led by Tutor/Mentor Connection until mid 2011. Since then it has been led by Tutor/Mentor Institute, LLC, but with limited resources. Take a look. See if it fits what needs to be done in your city. Then contact Tutor/Mentor Institute, LLC and let Dan help you develop it.]]>

This presentation outlines strategies developed in a tutor/mentor program I led in Chicago from 1975 to 1992, and a second program that I led in Chicago from 1993 to 2011. The steps are sequential, and concurrent. For instance, as an out-of-school-time program, youth are volunteers, as are tutors and mentors. A program must continuously work to attract and retain student and volunteer participation. These are the first two steps. If students don't attend regularly, and return for multiple years, the other steps don't reach them. This and other presentations created since the 1990s are intended to help leaders, volunteers, donors and policy-makers build and sustain, comprehensive, long-term, mentor-rich youth learning programs in every high poverty area of Chicago and other places. ]]>

In 1992 there was no Tutor/Mentor Connection in Chicago. Dan Bassill and six other volunteers who were starting a new non-profit tutor/mentor program to serve teens in the Cabrini Green neighborhood decided to create the T/MC to fill a leadership void, and help similar programs grow in all high poverty neighborhoods. This PDF shows this history. Bassill had led a volunteer-based tutor/mentor program, based at the Montgomery Ward Corporate HQ in Chicago, since 1975. Since 1976 he had been building a list of Chicago tutor/mentor programs and inviting them to connect and share ideas regularly. In his corporate retail advertising job with Montgomery Ward, Bassill saw how different teams of employees took specific roles to help over 400 stores in 40 states. He saw how weekly advertising drew attention and customers to each store. Bassill recognized that while Chicago media occasionally gave front page attention to gangs, poorly performing schools and urban violence, they did not do this as part of an on-going effort to help high quality tutor/mentor programs reach K-12 youth in all high poverty areas of the city. Bassill also recognized that without a master list of existing tutor/mentor programs no leader could lead a marketing plan intended to help each program get volunteers and dollars needed to operate. It was with this understanding that he launched planning for the Tutor/Mentor Connection in 1993 and the first citywide survey in January 1994. Bassill led the new youth program until 2011 and is still connected to many alumni on Facebook where he sees them talking about their own kids finishing high school and c college. He continues to lead the Tutor/Mentor Connection (in 2023), but as part of Tutor/Mentor Institute, LLC, which he formed in 2011. As you look at this presentation, follow the links to external websites and blogs. Ask yourself, "Do we have an organization doing this in our city?" If the answer is "no" then use this and other PDF essays and resources provided by the Tutor/Mentor Institute, LLC to duplicate this strategy. ]]>

In early 2000s students from a marketing class at DePaul University in Chicago were asked to create a strategic plan guiding a university in its effort to create a strategy similar to the one the Tutor/Mentor Connection had piloted since 1993. This presentation was created from their work. It shows what universities can do to help youth from all high poverty areas of the cities where they operate move more successfully through k-12 education, college, and then into jobs, careers and adult lives. This presentation shows a vision of a Tutor/Mentor Connection on one or more university campuses. It can be the starting point for any college or university to begin to research this idea and build a similar strategy for their own university. A starting point might be to invite students to look at this as part of a class project, or an independent study project. Then create their own version of this PDF, as a starting point of enlisting others from the university to support the strategy.]]>

This presentation focuses on a role that consultants and others can take to help build mentor-rich systems of support that reach youth in the school and non-school hours and in a greater number of high poverty areas of Chicago and other cities. This can be virtual volunteering as well as hands on. This and other presentations created by Dan Bassill, founder of the Tutor/Mentor Connection (1993) and Tutor/Mentor Institute, LLC (2011) are based on his 35 years experience leading volunteer-based tutor/mentor programs in Chicago, as well as 17 years working in the retail advertising department at the Montgomery Ward Corporate Office in Chicago, along with 4 years serving as a Loaned Executive for the United Way Crusade of Mercy in Chicago. These experiences convinced Bassill of the benefits of volunteer-based tutor/mentor programs and the need for a system that support hundreds of individual programs located in different places, which is exactly what teams at the corporate office of big companies do on a daily basis. As you browse this and other T/MI essays, ask "Is anyone doing this in my city?" If the answer is no, create your own version of the presentation, with maps of your city, and begin to recruit a team to help you build the strategy.]]>

Inner city hospitals are anchor organizations, often the biggest employer and most influential leader in its neighborhood. Many hospitals struggle to provide continuous services due to the high costs of poverty. Since late 1990s Tutor/Mentor Connection (Tutor/Mentor Institute, LLC since 2011) has tried to enlist hospitals, universities and professional groups as strategic partners, using their own resources to help youth and families living in high poverty areas surrounding their organizations. In 2001 grad students from DePaul University created strategic plan templates, which I've updated since then, to be used as starting points for hospital and university leaders interested in adopting the Tutor/Mentor Connection strategy as their own. This is a vision. It could be a reality in cities across the world. It just takes a small group of leaders to get it started. Take a look.]]>

Media stories have shown how lives have been cut short by urban violence and poorly performing schools for more than 30 years. However, very few leaders in politics, business, religion or philanthropy have used maps consistently to show where poverty is concentrated and to draw volunteers and donors to support schools and youth serving tutor/mentor programs in each of these areas. This essay shows how maps can be used by leaders to mobilize and point resources to schools and non-school tutor/mentor programs in high poverty areas. The examples are maps created by the Tutor/Mentor Connection since 1994. Use this and other visual essays as thought starters for creating and sustaining long-term strategies that help youth in high poverty areas gain extra adult support and learning opportunities which help them move through school and into adult lives. ]]>

The big question is "How do we keep attention focused on social organizations long enough for them to have an impact? What roles might youth and interns take?" Few small volunteer-based tutor/mentor programs have advertising budgets to draw attention, and resources, to themselves on a consistent basis. Yet, without a constant flow of attention most organizations cannot attract the dollars and volunteers needed to do good work and sustain it for many years. This article shows a strategy that involves writing follow-up stories when media cover bad news (like violence, gangs, poverty, poor schools) with big headlines. It's a strategy that can engage youth, volunteers and staff. The strategy can be applied to support youth serving organizations and other needed social services in Chicago or anywhere in the world.]]>
