Chicago—March 25, 2009—The Night Ministry, in partnership with Alternatives, Inc., is pleased to announce the support of the Simpson Academy for Young Women. Throughout the 2008-2009 school year, the students at Simpson Academy have been working on plans to open a school-based daycare center for their children.
The daycare center presentation will take place at the Simpson Academy Cafeteria, 1321 South Paulina Street on Tuesday, March 31, 2009 at 12:30pm.
The Simpson Academy for Young Women is now the only school in Chicago that serves pregnant and parenting girls between the ages of 11 and 18. Simpson offers a general education curriculum in a nurturing environment that includes social work services and counseling services for students and their families. In their Job Readiness class, the students were surveyed and recognized a pressing need for a day care center, especially since Simpson is a school for pregnant and parenting girls. As part of their curriculum, the students collaborated to research and develop a viable plan for a school-based daycare center from a teen parent’s perpective. In creating their center, students created a budget, daily schedules and activities, menus, safety regulations, and staff.
The Project is funded by the Chancellery of the Senate of the Republic o f Poland.
The School for Leaders Association welcomes the activists of the Polish community abroad and invites them to participate in the School for Leaders for the Polish Community in the United States and Canada.
Applications can be made from 1st April 2009. The School for Leaders for the Polish Community Abroad is aimed at dynamic activists of the Polish communities abroad who are of Polish descent and aged between 20 and 35. The session of the School for Leaders will be held for two weeks from 29th June to 12th July 2009 and residents of the United States or Canada will participate. Deadline for making applications is 26th April 2009.
The objective of the project is to increase participants’ national identification with Poland and its culture as well as to introduce them to issues concerning transformation of the political system in Poland, country’s contemporary society and economy. The programme will develop participants’ leadership skills by preparing them to undertake dynamic and socially aware activities within their local communities.

CHICAGO— The Illinois Student Assistance Commission (ISAC) announces it is entering its final month of the current enrollment period for the College Illinois! 529 prepaid tuition plan with the program in solid financial shape.
“Our message to the residents of Illinois and current College Illinois! contract holders is that the program is on firm footing,” explained ISAC Executive Director Andrew Davis. “College Illinois’ assets are both safe and liquid.”
As of February 28, 2009, the value of College Illinois’ assets stood at $726,646,868. The program has 55,527 active contracts as of December 31, 2008, including 44,148 paid in full.
