Registration is free for Northwestern students. Free breakfast and lunch is provided. More than 20 workshops and 4 keynote speeches will take place. Come for one, come for all.
* Network with nonprofit leaders from across Chicago (list of attendees)

The Tutor/Mentor Connection shares it's own ideas about tutoring and mentoring as a workforce development strategy in a Tutor/Mentor Institute web site. It also shares ideas of more than 1500 other organizations in the library on the T/MC web site. As we approach each conference we invite people who we link to on these web sites to come together to share their own knowledge, and to find ways to help expand the resources to support all volunteer-based tutoring/mentoring programs in Chicago and other cities, not just a few high profile programs.
Each conference offers workshops on planning, evaluation, recruitment and training, marketing and development, as well as specific topics related to tutoring and mentoring youth at different age ranges.
The November Conference takes place shortly after the start of each school year when programs have recruited and placed students and volunteers. The focus of this conference is on teaching volunteers to be more effective tutors and mentors and fostering the leadership skills necessary to help programs grow. Since this conference is just before the year end holiday's, it's goal is also to make potential donors more aware of tutor/mentor programs, so that when they choose to make a year-end donation, more tutor/mentor programs benefit from these gifts.
For more details and to register, visit http:// www.tutormentorconference.org/ or call 312-492-9614. Registration includes continental breakfast, lunch and all conference materials.
