About us
North Chicago Community Partners (NCCP) was founded in 2008 in direct response to the lack of outside support for the academic challenges facing the children of North Chicago. In Illinois, schools in low-income communities are massively underfunded – but their students need the same supportive services as students in wealthier communities in order to succeed. In North Chicago, that kind of support is available through NCCP. For more than ten years, the organization has leveraged the resources of the broader community to provide a menu of programs and services that complement classroom instruction and enhance student learning. NCCP’s work brings together a range of people to help support its unique “community school” model. In this model, NCCP partners with schools to offer after school enrichment and extended learning opportunities for all students, support teachers, engage parents in the education of their children, and provide opportunities for family learning. NCCP also plays an invaluable role in mobilizing resources to transform public schools in North Chicago.

Last Saturday, 138 North Chicago District 187 students visited Lake Forest College for College Adventure Day, where they connected with Lake Forest mentors, learned about college life, and even had a pep rally with Boomer the Bear! Together with their mentors, students learned about responsibility, cooperation, gratitude, and creativity through fun activities. Thank you #LakeForestCollege and #Foresters for showing us an amazing time! #NorthChicago #GoForesters John Price

Mark your calendars for December 2nd! This #GivingTuesday, our goal is to raise $15,000 for our Vision CARE Program which provides free eye exams and glasses to North Chicago District 187 students. In the United States, over 25% of children aged 2 to 17 have glasses or contacts - but getting that eyewear can be difficult, especially for those without insurance. As part of our whole-child support, North Chicago Community Partners provides free eye exams and glasses to more than 100 students each school year!
