In Episode #0003 of “Fresh Only, Please!”, student participants in “THE SUMMER PROGRAM” find that moving towards a safer Chicago also requires intentional investments in the wellbeing of everyone in our community. Jackie Hoffman of Peace Runners 773 stops by to inspire our youth—with a few incredible surprises along the way.

In Episode #0002, student participants in “THE SUMMER PROGRAM” continue investigating the digital divide within Chicago’s West Side by using research tools from The Markup - a nonprofit publication focused on challenging technology to serve the public good. Our Digital Stewards In-Training also traveled to connect with our next community organization in the Connect D.O.T.S. (Digital Outreach to Transform Safety) cohort, Earth’s Remedies.
