These sessions will be held in person at DPI’s downtown office (200 S. Wacker, 4th Floor). The April 9th session will be a program showcase for participants and their parents or guardians.
Proof of vaccination or weekly negative test results will be required for all attendees, per the University of Illinois’ COVID-19 guidelines and procedures. Food and transit cards will be provided for program participants.
