OTHER SAFE POSITIVE AFFIRMING GROUPS ON THE SOUTHSIDE
The Cooperation Operation (Coop Op) is a non-profit organization focused on creating a resource for people of all ages in the Chicago Area surrounding health, wellness and growing food by transforming vacant urban land into spaces for educational and economic empowerment. We envision a world where all people have access to affordable healthy food, education, and critical social services. We work to enable volunteers and student groups to reimagine food, health and underutilized spaces and objects. We cultivate a safe, community space within our neighborhood that is open and accessible to all who enter.

TALK "Empowering teens to become difference makers in their communities through the arts"
"TALK is for teens, by teens. So it is different than many clubs/activities where adults "tee" successes up for teens. In TALK, teens learn to drive their own artistic gifts & talents and they gain valuable experience putting themselves and their art "out there." Involvement is initiated by the teen and teens engage at a level that works for them and that is consistent with their interests and abilities. TALK helps teens become difference-makers at their pace."
