Program Highlight: Let's WIN 

Let's WIN is a youth mentoring program offered in partnership with S.E. Gross Middle School and supported by the Proviso Township Mental Health Commission, bringing students together with police officers and school staff twice a month for homework help, recreational games, life skills projects, and hands-on technology activities. Each session ends with a family dinner that connects parents and guardians with participating officers, and annual field trips round out a program built on wellness, transparency, and positive relationships between youth, families, and police.
