Transforming our public schools is an essential first step toward eliminating many of the social problems extant in Joliet and in the country as a whole.

U.I.L.D.) program aimed to increase community involvement in children's lives as a way of increasing education. Watching the video describing B.U.I.L.D.'s programs, it was interesting to see that some of the community activists did not even seem concerned about education, specifically. For example, Rev.
