Lawrence Hall supports 1,100 children in Chicagoland each year who otherwise would be on the street, in jail or dead. It does this in four ways:

·         A 1st-12^th grade alternative school—with a 95% graduation rate versus 59% for Chicago Public Schools

·         Residential treatment—giving shelter and counseling to kids so they can return home or move into foster care

·         Foster care—providing a safe environment for children who can’t go home because of abuse or neglect

·         Programs to help young men and women ages 17-21—so they can successfully move from the child welfare system to a life on their own

Each of these kids has a past that would horrify you—and you have the opportunity to give all of them a secure present and hopeful future.
