Chicago’s youth are thriving, not just surviving

Chicago’s young people are rewriting the narrative, thanks to nearly four decades of work by Bennie Henry and The Support Group. Since 1988, they’ve empowered over 150,000 students with mentorship, leadership, and violence prevention programs. Their latest push—"It Takes a Village" and "1,000 Businesses for Peace"—calls on the whole community to step up and invest in the next generation. Henry’s story proves that with the right support, adversity can fuel greatness. How do you think we can keep building a city where every kid gets a real shot at success? #Safety #ChicagoYouth #CommunitySupport
