Strengthening Communities Through Schools
We envision communities in which race or zip code no longer predict educational outcomes, where neighbors collaborate to ensure that all children receive what they need to reach their fullest potential.
Invest in Equitable Education for all ChildrenNorth Chicago Community Partners (NCCP) uses a holistic approach to bridge the opportunity gap and support children in North Chicago by leveraging resources from within and around the neighborhood.

Recent Happenings
Last week, 18 volunteers from Trustmark's Human Resources Department joined us at North Chicago Community High School to restock the Family Care Closet and assemble family cooking and baking kits. In just two hours, these incredible volunteers made over 200 kits to provide families with new recipes to try at home. A huge thank you to our Trustmark volunteers for making the Family Care Closet a helpful and respectful place for D187 families!
Over this past year, NCCP welcomed five students from Cristo Rey St. Martin to our team of interns. Each intern played an integral role in preparing projects across the organization. At the end of school year, interns presented their experience working at NCCP to our team and shared the skills they added to their toolbox. Thank you, Cristo Rey St. Martin students, for all your hard work this year! We wish you all the best!
After School Enrichment Program students at Forrestal Elementary and Evelyn Alexander School LOVED receiving their Cereal Math Kits packed by Lake County Senior High Youth Group volunteers! Kindergartners through third graders had so much fun using their cereal charms to practice counting, graphing, adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing! One student said, "I love marshmallows, and math too, this makes it fun!" Thank you, Christ Church IL, for hosting such an impactful service event for students across Lake County!
Second graders at Forrestal Elementary and Evelyn Alexander School received Financial Literacy Kits assembled by members of Discover's Consumer Banking Leadership Program! Students loved reading the notes written to them by Discover employees and were so excited to see that each kit included a book and chocolate coins! Thank you, Discover, for investing in financial literacy for the students of North Chicago!
