CONCORDIA PLACE'S FOUR CENTERS IN CHICAGO'S AVONDALE, NORTH CENTER, RAVENSWOOD, AND OLD IRVING PARK NEIGHBORHOODS SERVE OVER 1,000 CHILDREN AND YOUTH EACH YEAR. THIS INCLUDES OVER 530 CHILDREN IN THE EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION AND CARE PROGRAM; OVER 45 FAMILIES IN THE HOME VISITING PROGRAM; OVER 160 CHILDREN IN THE SCHOOL-AGE 365 AFTER-SCHOOL AND SUMMER PROGRAM, AND OVER 260 YOUTH IN THE TEEN LEADERSHIP PROGRAM.

O) 0 0 7435923 CHILDREN'S PROGRAMSEARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION & CAREEXPERIENCED AND ACCREDITED TEACHERS NURTURE CHILDREN'S LEARNING, CURIOSITY, AND INDEPENDENCE WITH FUN AND EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES THAT SUPPORT THEIR COGNITIVE, SOCIAL, AND PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT. IN FY24, CONCORDIA PLACE SERVED OVER 530 CHILDREN, AGES SIX WEEKS TO FIVE YEARS, ACROSS FOUR SITES. ALL FOUR SITES ARE ACCREDITED BY THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR THE EDUCATION OF YOUNG CHILDREN (NAEYC), A NATIONAL STANDARD THAT IDENTIFIES QUALITY, RESEARCH-BASED EARLY LEARNING PROGRAMS. FEWER THAN 10% OF CHILDCARE PROGRAMS ACROSS THE COUNTRY HAVE NAEYC ACCREDITATION, DEMONSTRATING CONCORDIA'S COMMITMENT TO HIGH-QUALITY PRACTICES. CONCORDIA PLACE'S QUALIFIED TEACHERS, ALL OF WHOM HAVE DEGREES IN EARLY EDUCATION, UNDERSTAND DEVELOPMENTAL MILESTONES: IF CHILDREN HAVE ANY ISSUES OR DELAYS, THEY ARE DETECTED EARLY, ACTIVITIES ARE ADJUSTED FOR THEIR NEEDS, AND ADDITIONAL SUPPORTS ARE IMPLEMENTED AS NECESSARY. AS A RESULT, CHILDREN WHO MIGHT HAVE BEEN AT RISK OF ACADEMIC OR DEVELOPMENTAL DELAYS ARRIVE AT KINDERGARTEN PREPARED FOR FUTURE ACADEMIC SUCCESS. THROUGH A PLAY-BASED CURRICULUM, CONCORDIA'S TEACHERS HELP STUDENTS PREPARE FOR FUTURE ACADEMIC AND PERSONAL SUCCESS BY GAINING DIVERSE KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS, INCLUDING MATH AND COUNTING, SPEECH AND LANGUAGE, SOCIAL INTERACTIONS, AND FINE AND GROSS MOTOR SKILLS. TO MEASURE THESE SKILLS, CONCORDIA PLACE UTILIZES THE TEACHING STRATEGIES GOLD ASSESSMENT SYSTEM, THE BENCHMARK FOR EARLY CHILDHOOD PROGRAMS, WHICH MEASURES STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT ACROSS SIX DEVELOPMENTAL AREAS: SOCIAL/EMOTIONAL, PHYSICAL, LANGUAGE, COGNITIVE, LITERACY, AND MATH. OF THE CONCORDIA STUDENTS TRANSITIONING TO KINDERGARTEN IN FY24, 96% MET OR EXCEEDED STANDARDS FOR ALL SIX DEVELOPMENTAL AREAS. THIS SHOWS THAT TEACHERS ARE ACADEMICALLY AND SOCIALLY PREPARING STUDENTS FOR KINDERGARTEN AND BEYOND. HOME VISITINGIN CONCORDIA PLACE'S HOME VISITING PROGRAM, TWO EARLY CHILDHOOD EXPERTS PROVIDE TWICE-PER-MONTH ONE-ON-ONE MEETINGS TO EXPECTING PARENTS AND PARENTS WITH CHILDREN UP TO AGE THREE. HOME VISITORS TEACH PARENTS HOW TO CREATE LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES FOR THEIR CHILDREN AT HOME AND PREPARE THEIR INFANTS FOR FUTURE GROWTH. HOME VISITING ENSURES THAT FAMILIES HAVE THE RESOURCES NECESSARY TO PROVIDE A LOVING AND LEARNING-RICH ENVIRONMENT FOR THEIR CHILDREN, ENHANCING THE MENTAL, PHYSICAL, AND EMOTIONAL HEALTH OF THE ENTIRE FAMILY. UTILIZING THE PARENTS AS TEACHERS CURRICULUM, HOME VISITORS SUPPORT EXPECTING MOTHERS BY HELPING THEM UNDERSTAND THE BIOLOGICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL PROCESSES OF PREGNANCY AND TEACHING THEM ABOUT THE CRITICAL STAGES OF CHILD DEVELOPMENT. IN FY24, CONCORDIA SERVED OVER 45 FAMILIES THROUGH HOME VISITING, NEARLY DOUBLING THE NUMBER SERVED THE PREVIOUS YEAR. HOME VISITORS ALSO REFERRED NEW MOTHERS WITH POST-PARTUM DEPRESSION TO OUR PARTNER, ADVOCATE HEALTH'S, MOVING BEYOND DEPRESSION PROGRAM AS WELL AS THEIR DOULA PROGRAM FOR BIRTHING ASSISTANCE.TO QUALIFY FOR HOME VISITING, FAMILIES MUST BE CHICAGO RESIDENTS, QUALIFY AS LOW-INCOME, AND RECEIVE WIC OR SNAP BENEFITS. MANY OF THE FAMILIES SERVED THROUGH HOME VISITING ARE INCREDIBLY UNDER-RESOURCED, WITH 60% EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS OR LIVING IN UNSTABLE HOUSING SITUATIONS. CONCORDIA'S PROGRAM IS ALSO CULTURALLY RELEVANT FOR THE MAJORITY-LATINO POPULATION SERVED - BOTH HOME VISITORS SHARE THE CULTURAL AND LINGUISTIC BACKGROUNDS OF THE FAMILIES THEY WORK WITH. CONCORDIA PLACE HAS ALSO UTILIZED HOME VISITING TO SUPPORT THE LARGE POPULATION OF RECENT MIGRANTS IN CHICAGO - 76% OF THE FAMILIES THE HOME VISITORS WORK WITH ARRIVED IN THE UNITED STATES WITHIN THE LAST TWO YEARS. SCHOOL-AGE 365CONCORDIA'S AFTERSCHOOL AND SUMMER PROGRAM FOR 5- TO 12-YEAR-OLDS, SCHOOL-AGE 365 BLENDS RECREATION AND EDUCATION, ENABLING CHILDREN TO CONTINUE THEIR SCHOOL-DAY LEARNING IN A NURTURING AND WARM ENVIRONMENT. THROUGH ART, GAMES, COOKING, MUSIC, DRAMA, AND SPORTS, CHILDREN LEARN SOCIALIZATION, TEAM BUILDING, PROBLEM-SOLVING, AND COMMUNICATION SKILLS. ALL PARTICIPANTS RECEIVE A NUTRITIOUS SNACK AND SUPPORT TO HELP THEM COMPLETE THEIR HOMEWORK. IN ADDITION TO HOMEWORK HELP, CHILDREN ENGAGE IN ACADEMIC ACTIVITIES AND PROJECTS WITH READING AND WRITING, SCIENCE, MATH, SOCIAL STUDIES, AND ART COMPONENTS THAT ALIGN WITH THE ILLINOIS LEARNING STANDARDS. CONCORDIA PLACE OFFERS SUPERVISED PICKUP FOR AFTER-SCHOOL PROGRAMMING FROM TWO LOCAL SCHOOLS. SUMMER CAMP PROVIDES EVEN MORE ACTIVITIES WITH WEEKLY THEMATIC ACTIVITIES AND FIELD TRIPS WITH TWO SNACKS AND AN ORGANIC LUNCH DAILY. 464639 13911 COMMUNITY PROGRAMSTEEN LEADERSHIPCONCORDIA'S YEAR-ROUND TEEN PROGRAMS WERE CREATED TO EMPOWER YOUTH WITH THE 21ST-CENTURY SKILLS NECESSARY TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN TODAY'S WORLD, INCLUDING ENTREPRENEURSHIP, SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE, AND SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY. UTILIZING A LEARN-AND-EARN MODEL, STUDENTS EXPLORE THEIR PASSIONS, INCLUDING URBAN GARDENING, CULINARY ARTS, CRAFTING, AND MORE. THE 13- TO 18-YEAR-OLD PARTICIPANTS CAN CHOOSE BETWEEN A SUITE OF PROGRAMS, EACH OF WHICH HAS A DIFFERENT FOCUS AREA. FOR EXAMPLE, RUCKUS ENTREPRENEURS ENABLES TEENS TO LEARN BUSINESS SKILLS WHILE CREATING AND SELLING NATURAL BODY CARE PRODUCTS; CULINARY LEADERS HELPS STUDENTS GROW AND PREPARE FOOD WHILE DEVELOPING CONFLICT RESOLUTION SKILLS; AND CRAFT & CULTURE LAB TEACHES YOUTH ABOUT SUSTAINABLE ART PRACTICES AND DIFFERENT CULTURES' ART STYLES.

IN FISCAL YEAR 2024, OVER 260 TEENS ATTENDED PROGRAMMING. 60% OF STUDENTS WERE LATINO/HISPANIC, 20% WERE BLACK/AFRICAN AMERICAN, 8% WERE ASIAN, 6% WERE MULTI-RACIAL, AND 6% WERE WHITE. TO FURTHER FOSTER INCLUSION AND ECONOMIC MOBILITY, TEEN LEADERSHIP UTILIZES AN "EARN AND LEARN MODEL," IN WHICH PARTICIPANTS RECEIVE STIPENDS TO ATTEND. THIS IS ESPECIALLY TRANSFORMATIVE FOR PARTICIPANTS - 93% OF WHOM ARE ELIGIBLE FOR FREE OR REDUCED LUNCHES - BECAUSE MANY COME FROM HOUSEHOLDS THAT RELY ON THEM TO SUPPLEMENT THEIR FAMILIES' INCOME.
