Earth’s Remedies (E.R.) connects West Side families, small businesses, and community centers to developmental resources.
Serving as a database hub, Earth’s Remedies is able to introduce West Side Youth to careers within Data Analytics, Storytelling & advocacy. Youth are also connected to wellness, career readiness, financial literacy, business consultation, health & wellness, and violence prevention resources as they conduct their research.
In return, small businesses, community members, and scholars are connected to a network of resources via the West Side Collective. Here at Earth’s Remedies, we understand there is strategic starvation on the West Side of Chicago, and the lack of resources is the driving force behind our youth’s gravitation towards crime, as a means of financial stability.
We have to become what our community needs!

Community Members

West Side Scholars
West Side youth are connected to restorative justice programs and developmental resources, as the lack of resources on the Westside of Chicago is the driving force behind our youth’s gravitation towards crime, as a means of financial stability.
