Teach For America - Chicago

Teach For America’s mission is to build the movement to eliminate educational inequity by developing leaders.

- We recruit committed recent college graduates and professionals of all backgrounds to teach for two years in urban and rural public schools

- We train and develop these corps members so that they have an immediate positive impact on their students

- We foster the leadership of our alumni as they address this problem from all sectors

The work we do is about people – our students, who have the potential to achieve at the highest levels, and their parents, who want the best for them; our corps members, who work relentlessly to put their students on different academic trajectories; our alumni, who work in education and across all sectors to accelerate the pace of change; and our staff members, supporters, and partners, who make our efforts possible. These individuals bring a rich diversity of experiences to our work but are united by a shared vision that one day, all children in this nation will have the opportunity to attain an excellent education.
