South Side Group Wants To Beef Up Teen Programs

A South Side group wants help from neighbors to beef up social programs for teens and young adults throughout the summer. Bennie Henry, executive director of the Support Group, a Pilsen-based nonprofit that works with teens and young adults to turn them into leaders, said programming for teens is key to preventing situations like the youth gatherings Downtown and at 31st Street Beach that turned violent.
