Connecting Youth to What’s Possible

Chicago Emerging Stars offers youth mentorship programs in Chicago that help young people build confidence, leadership, purpose, and connection. Every young person deserves to be seen, supported, and connected to opportunities that help them grow. This form is for youth, parents, guardians, families, school staff, and community partners who are interested in mentorship, programs, events, resources, or future opportunities for a young person.

Our programs support youth through mentorship, leadership development, career readiness, community experiences, and spaces where young people can discover their purpose, strengthen their voice, and feel connected to something positive.

Because our programs and mentorship opportunities can fill quickly, this form helps our team learn more about interested youth and families throughout the year. Whether you are completing this for yourself, your child, a student, or a young person you care about, we are grateful you are here.

Please Note: Submitting this form does not guarantee program placement, mentorship matching, or immediate enrollment. Opportunities may depend on program availability, age range, location, schedule, and capacity. However, your submission allows our team to keep your information on file and consider the youth for current and future opportunities.

Our goal is to connect young people to spaces where they feel heard, valued, encouraged, and prepared to grow. If there is a program, mentorship opportunity, event, or resource that may be a good fit, a member of our team may follow up with more information.

Thank you for trusting us with this information. We are honored to learn more about the young people in our community and continue shaping brighter futures, one star at a time.
