Mission

The Carole Robertson Center for Learning is dedicated to nurturing, supporting, and strengthening family life through quality child, youth, and family development programs. The Center serves Metropolitan Chicago families and facilitates community advocacy on child and family issues.
History

The agency was founded in 1976 by parents and other community residents who rallied to save their local school age program when its sponsoring agency closed. These visionary neighborhood parents created a governance structure that assured parents would hold the dominant voices in agency leadership and management. From its modest beginning, the Center has evolved into a comprehensive family development agency. Since 1976, the Center has grown to ten times its original size.
