Description

When Jahmal Cole began volunteering at the Cook County Jail in 2013, he quickly realized many of its youngest occupants had never once been out of their neighborhoods. 

This observation would prove to be an important catalyst in establishing My Block, My Hood, My City.

Today, you can find Jahmal Cole and his team providing opportunities for teens to step outside their comfort zone to explore new communities, cultures, and cuisines. They also work within communities to show how service, empathy, and collaboration can make a difference not only on their own block but in the city of Chicago.
