Project: VISION’s mission is to help youth of Chicago’s Chinatown, Bridgeport, McKinley Park, and surrounding communities achieve their full potentials by providing them with tools for educational, personal, and civic development. Project: VISION takes a holistic approach to youth development. Our programs help under-resourced youth achieve academic success, develop personal strengths and skills, and build positive attitudes and confidence, preparing them to become well-rounded, socially responsible community leaders. Three core program areas aim to help our youth LEARN, encourage them to SERVE, and finally LEAD.
