About

Praxis is an organization that collaborates with youth and community initiatives that are dedicated to providing high-quality, transformative programming. Their hands-on approach involves all stakeholders and is rooted in the application of anti-racist, healing-centered, research-based, and participatory engagement strategies. Praxis offers support and services to their partners to help integrate theory and practice, empowering young people and communities to take an active role in creating their own individual and collective wellbeing. They work collaboratively with their partners, providing inclusive interactions and participatory practices throughout the entire process.

Our Work

In 2019, CCG partnered with Praxis Institute to develop Gender Inclusivity training sessions for youth workers and social service providers. Team members facilitated virtual sessions for Youth Guidance &  Chicago Public Schools and created a web based training module for Service Year.

Steven Rosado & Fausto Lopez, The Praxis Institute

“The Praxis Institute is very appreciative of the opportunities they have had to work with the Chico Consulting Group on initiatives serving the Chicago Public Schools, the Chicago Department of Family and Support Services, and several local and national not-for-profit organizations. The CCG team is a fantastic partner to work with for a number of reasons. They are highly skilled in their work as subject matter experts, evaluators, researchers, session facilitators, and strategic planning partners. In addition, they are individually wonderful people who always enter into this difficult and complex field with care, intentionality, and with love.”
