GYO-IL Multi-Year Legislative Report 2020–2023

With ongoing investment from the Illinois legislature, GYO-IL programs harness the contributions of higher education, district, and community partners to directly address Illinois’ chronic teacher shortage and lack of racial diversity in the educator workforce. GYO-IL purposefully recruits candidates from high-need urban and rural areas with significant teacher vacancies, fully supports them in preparation programs, and returns them to their home communities as fully licensed teachers. 

We are pleased to share a report that reflects on our work and impact for the past four fiscal years, 2020-2023.

GYO-IL’s growth is due to sustained investment from Illinois and our centralized administration of the GYO grant, which includes collaborating with our consortia to support local candidates.
