For the first time since Mayor Emanuel closed most of Chicago's clinics a decade ago, we and our coalitions won an increase in spending on City mental-health clinics.

After over a decade of service, our current Executive Director, Alex Goldenberg, is moving on.

The Coordinator will train and build the capacity of students, parents, teachers, staff, and community to engage in RJ practices. The coordinator will also support youth organizing.

We and allies won a 72% increase in staffing. Our organizer said, “We will remain in this fight until there is a free public mental health center in every ward of Chicago!” Read our statement.

Last week, we removed one police officer from Hyde Park Academy. Now your resources are essential to seeing this through.

Last year, our school—and nearly all majority-Black schools—voted unanimously to keep police in schools. They said it was impossible for a school like ours to remove police… Well, Black students made the impossible possible.

STOP is more than campaigns, like CBA. STOP is a membership organization, led by community members. Join this town hall to meet with STOP leaders and learn how you can join.

It’s time for the People’s Assembly. Shape our organization’s upcoming year with our board reps and staff. Plus, pay dues and get a hoodie :)

Wardell was the stuff of legend. He traveled the world and the country. He shared tables with Mayor Washington, businessmen, and the homeless.

We’ll have food at 12:30 and we’ll invite everyone to speak about Wardell at 1pm. Consider bringing a side-dish! And please bring a mask and if possible, a chair for yourself. Registration is optional.

We’ll hear about the Community Emergency Services and Support Act. It developed with the family of Stephon Watts, an autistic teenager killed by police in his home.

She shares: “I first got involved with STOP through Black Youth Project 100 (BYP100)'s participation in the CBA coalition. From the intergenerational participation to the town halls, I was hooked.”

This June, Hyde Park Academy’s Local School Council will vote on whether they want to keep police in the school, or put in place an alternative safety plan.

We demand that Mayor Lightfoot uphold her campaign promise to reopen the clinics and invest FEDERAL RELIEF FUNDS into City-run mental health services.

Help STOP take our CBA work to the next level and continue to build the power of low income and working-class Black tenants in Woodlawn and surrounding neighborhoods.
