Our Resource Guide

This resource guide was created in response to a gap in the awareness and the availability of resources for high school students in the immigration spectrum in the Chicago Public Schools (CPS). 

Values that lead this guide

01

Our Why

Immigrant students in CPS high schools and the professionals working with these students often lack a cohesive list of resources that students and staff can utilize to guide them through their questions.

02

Our Response

This resource guide is an approach that aims to aid CPS high school students in the immigration spectrum with resources across multiple domains including: scholarships, post-secondary, mental health,legal services, and tax services and other revelant resources.

03

Our Goal

This guide seeks to build the capacity of students, counselors, and community members and organizations that work with students in the immigration spectrum. We hope you can also find these resources useful and encourage you to share it with others.
