As of September 20, 2008, our regular meeting place has become Vaughn High School located at 4355 N. Linder Ave., Chicago, Illinois 60641. The Portage Park Center of the Arts at 5801 West Dakin was about to close and we were offered the use of the High School for our meetings. We will be eternally grateful for The Portage Park Center for the Arts because they offered us a home when we had none. It performed as an exemplary community center and was the envy of many neighborhoods. It lost its city funding and is now forced to close; a sad commentary on our times. Special thanks to Jennifer LaCivita and her family who operated the center with exquisite taste and good sense. Kudos to you!
Vaughn High School is where the idea of Vaughn & Friends was born and when we changed our name to include all CPS Special Ed. graduates and attendees, we retained the name of Vaughn for that reason. We are still new as charitable organizations go. It has been an uphill climb but our members have found the challenge to be rewarding. May it always be so.
