Urban Initiatives

Our mission is to empower Chicago’s underserved children to adopt healthy lifestyles, improve their academic performance, and build strong character through sports-based youth development programs. We offer three incentive-based programs: Work to Play, our flagship program; Take the Lead, our leadership development program; and Play with Potential, our structured recess program. Currently, we work in 42 schools with 16,500 students in 29 communities across Chicago.
