Why Chicago Needs the A Way Out Program

We aren't all born under the same circumstances. Too many people face challenging barriers just getting through through childhood. Many young men are forced to deal with a host of disadvantages:
• Poverty
• Violence
• Lack of Education
• Underpaid Careers
• Poor housing
• Dysfunctional and/or Abusive Relationships
​
Sadly, some boys and men fall victim to drugs, crime and other personal issues.
​
This is where A Way Out comes in. We help at-risk men find the purpose and valor through individual and group counseling, mentoring, volunteering and community building.
