Adult Educational Workshops, Seminars, and Mission

As a community nonprofit organization focused on immigration & education, Frida Community Organization provides adult educational programs designed to support both personal development and parental involvement in their children’s academic journey.

Frida empowers parents to better understand themselves and their children’s education. This leads to improved quality of life and active participation in the learning process.

Our children are the world’s hope for the future — and we, as parents, are their greatest hope in the present. Our programs help parents grow alongside their children.

Parents develop attitudes and skills to strengthen the family unit and build healthier relationships at home.

Parents learn practical strategies to overcome personal challenges and support their children’s education with a renewed mindset.

We offer preventative education around social challenges that children and youth face, equipping parents to provide guidance and awareness.

Our in-school student programs promote self-expression and discipline through the arts and academic enrichment. These programs foster confidence, creativity, and personal growth.

Frida Community Organization offers a variety of after-school programs that promote academic growth, creativity, physical well-being, and social-emotional development. 

As a community nonprofit organization focused on immigration & education, we believe in nurturing students' potential through hands-on, engaging learning experiences.

These programs are available to students from 1st to 12th grade in Chicago and its suburbs, and are made possible thanks to the generous support of federal and state resources, as well as private donors who believe in our mission.

Our student programs include a wide range of engaging activities:

• Art
   
• Cooking
   
• Crochet
   
• Dance
   
• Gardening
   
• Lego
   
• Math
   
• Music
   
• Robotics
   
• Sports
   
• STEAM
   
• Yoga
   

These activities are designed to build creativity, confidence, teamwork, and critical thinking—preparing students to thrive both in and out of the classroom.

In addition to ongoing educational support, Frida Community Organization offers a full range of parent-focused workshops to help caregivers become their children’s greatest tool for success. As a community nonprofit organization focused on immigration & education, we design our workshops around four key areas:

• Academic Success
   
• Family Discipline
   
• Nutrition & Physical Fitness
   
• Visual Arts
   

These workshops provide practical tools and knowledge to support children’s development. All sessions are available in English or Spanish, with participant limits varying by topic.
