🌟 Our Impact Center members recently explored careers in law enforcement through a 6-session Youth Citizens Police Academy, thanks to our partnership with the Carpentersville Police Department! From crime scene investigations and hands-on experience with technology like drones, range demos, and a driving simulator to K9 demonstrations, they gained hands-on experience. They learned all about the different careers available in the criminal justice field. A huge thank you to the Training Coordinator, Officers, Detectives, Crime Scene Investigator, Sergeants, Deputy Chief, Chief, Quadcom, and Social Services Coordinator McKenna for making this incredible experience possible! 🚓🎓 #BGCDT #GreatFutures #WorkforceReadiness #CommunityPartnerships

🌿 Community Impact Highlight 🌿 We are thrilled to share this heartfelt note from Carmen Barrett, one of the many community members touched by our Impact Center Lawn Crew! Our dedicated teens from the Impact Center have been working hard all summer, mowing lawns and doing yard work for those who need a little extra help. It’s inspiring to see how their efforts have made such a difference! Carmen’s kind words remind us of the positive impact we can have when we come together as a community.
