New York Life helps fund "Coaches U" Trauma-Informed Coach Training

Thanks New York Life Insurance Company for awarding Beat the Streets Chicago a $7,500 Community Impact Grant, recognizing our Board Member Erica Berning and her team’s long-term philanthropic involvement and leadership. This grant supports our Trauma-Informed Coach Training — a vital investment in the coaches who work tirelessly to build up and empower our youth. With this support, we can continue equipping coaches with the tools to create safe, supportive spaces for every athlete. Together, we’re strengthening the foundation of a community where young people can grow — on and off the mat.
