During the school year, Chicago HOPES for Kids provides homework help and math and literacy reinforcement to K-8 students living in Chicago homeless shelters. In anticipation that our students will have little-to-no homework they will participate in a series of hands on activities to learn more about the world around them. 

BEEP Incentive Program

BEEP is more than just a sound - at HOPES it also stands for Behavior, Enthusiasm and Engagement, and Productivity. BEEP is an incentive program designed to encourage students to always aim for "Three Stars" at a tutoring session, whether they have homework or spend the session reading a book with a tutor. Past BEEP incentives have included school supplies, healthy snacks and even complimentary tickets to a Chicago Sky game.
