Library Renovation

Renovation Updates

So far in March the crew have framed wall in the adult area, poured the concrete ramp in the YA area, framed the stage in the children’s area, hung ductwork throughout, completed the plumbing rough in and passed inspection. The crew also hung most of the door frames and started installing the sprinkler system. The crew also started prep work in the exterior of the building in preparation for the Nichiha siding.

Admin/Accounting Current Month

• Reviewed workers comp and property & liability invoices from the city to suggest revisions. Reviewed grant spend down for FY23 and projected library expenses for end-of-year. Provided summary of FY24 grant revenues for adult literacy, health equity and youth services and compared revenues to FY24 expenses. Reviewed loan document for building renovation to verify coverage for borrowing needs.

  
  

• Duplicate tax filing from previous payroll provider. Federal filing is complete and accurate, the IRS rejected Asure’s duplicate 941

  filing. The Illinois Department of Revenue replaced Paychex’s correct filing with Asure’s incorrect return and amended return was filed on 3/15/2023. Fees are being assessed by ILDOR for failure to connect tax withholding payments made and payments due resulting from amended return. Dispute to be filed 3/20/2023.

  
  

• Consideration of opening payroll tax accounts in states where employees reside. Paychex has advised it is best to open income tax withholding accounts in the states where employees reside. After researching multi state entity requirements, Illinois and Wisconsin have a reciprocity agreement not requiring Illinois entities to report to Wisconsin however it looks to be more efficient to follow Paychex’s advice long-term.

• IMRF employer contribution rate change effective 1/1/2023. We were advised on 2/14/2023 that the employer IMRF contribution rate changed effective 1/1/2023. February’s contribution was reduced by January’s overpayment and informational amounts reported on check stubs to be corrected on 3/24/2023 payroll.

Health Equity - Program updates from Yenny and her team)

Counseling sessions

• A 14-year-old client in the 8th grade shared that she looks forward to her weekly sessions because she feels safe to be herself and likes that she can learn ways of coping with life changes. “I can also teach my younger sister what I’m learning”.

  
  

• A client in her early 20’s has been working on identifying and processing her trauma to help her decrease her anxiety and help her

continue rediscovering her purpose in life. She expressed that she had a really difficult time finding a therapist that understood her culturally. “I wouldn’t be able to heal and overcome my trauma if it weren’t for this space. I think the timing was perfect because I don’t think I would have been able to name everything that I have before.”

Adult Support Group

• Our weekly support groups continue to meet the needs of our most vulnerable community members. One of our support group participants shared she was grateful for the group and shared how the group helps her. “Thank you for listening to us, for this space, your patience. I feel lighter and with less emotional baggage”

  
  

  Case Management:

• Our case managers continue to provide essential case management to our community members including translations, filling out school forms, assisting with housing requests, medical appointments, among others.

  
  

• A client receiving assistance looking for medical care shared “I am so happy someone actually called to help me, I am grateful you (the library) cares about us older immigrants.”

  
  

  Charlas Con Propósito: Presentations increase awareness and education. This week the focus was on:

• Prostate Cancer: Our Promotora de salud presented on the warning signs, prevention and treatment.

  
  

• Understanding diabetes is an ongoing effort as it affects members of our community. Being able to partner with Rosalind Franklin has been extremely helpful because it helps to encourage our community to seek medical help to manage illnesses.

  
  

• Derechos Laborales Chicago Worker Collaboration. Community members learned about their employment rights, reminding people that regardless of immigration status they also have rights.

create a meaningful connection with herself.

Patron Services – Elementary Children (Program updates from Alice and Diana)

On-going Children’s Programming Pre-School Storytime

• At our Preschool Storytimes in February we had a wonderful time with our littles, as always, but we placed an extra focus on informing our parents about our upcoming ¡Todos Juntos, 1,2,3! workshop series.

  
  

• Parents had expressed difficulty making it to Preschool Storytimes during the day, as many of them work, so our intention with the shift to ¡Todos Juntos! was to meet their needs

  
  

  Storytime and Crafts

• We were so grateful to host Judge Sharmila Manak of the Nineteenth Judicial Circuit Court for a storytime in February.

  
  

• She read “Equality’s Call: The Story of Voting Rights in America” aloud to our families then participated alongside the children to create “Futuro Votante” buttons. Judge Manak also provided families with books about Abraham Lincoln and coloring books about the role Judges serve in our justice system

  
  

• We also had the families and Judge Manak participate in a mock vote. Voters chose between a Lego table or dress-up costumes for our new children’s space after the renovation. It was a perfect tie!

¡Todos Juntos, 1, 2, 3!” is a workshop series designed to support parents as they prepare their children for kindergarten.

• These programs offer information for parents accompanied by hands- on activities for parents and children to participate in together.

  
  

• In partnership with United Way of Lake County, participants also received a kit of supplies that can be used at home to support their kids’ learning.

  
  

• In the first session, parents and children listened to a story and song tied to the book theme, and afterwards, Diana explained how they can plan storytimes at home, by selecting specific topics like colors, letters, shapes, numbers, and feelings. Diana also encouraged parents to pick specific times and days for storytimes at home, and choose a spot in the home where storytime will always take place to allow for consistency and kids to start developing patterns. One of the other tips suggested was setting aside specific toys that are to be used for storytime only so that their children can use after for a song or activity.

  
  

• A week later, one of the parents that attended was able to share with Diana how the approach worked for her kids and they were able to do a fun storytime at home, and play with legos they had and create something that they had read about during storytime.

  
  

  Pajama Storytime

• Kids have been enjoying listening to the books, and Diana encourages participation during the story by asking lots of questions and allowing kids to come up and point out parts of the story that really resonate with them.

  
  

• In February, we had two of our regular participants help Diana plan the activity and chose the books connected to the activity. They also assisted Diana and other participants with completing the projects.

  
  

  Pop-Up Programming Alice & Diana

• In February Diana and Alice visited the Nuestro Center again to read aloud, distribute library card applications, and do a Valentine’s Day

themed craft.

• All of the students participated in the craft and the leader of the program relayed that it is often difficult to get the elementary aged boys to get involved in craft projects. She also appreciated that the craft was challenging enough for the students and encouraged them to practice their fine motor skills.

  
  

  Game Night with the Highland Park High School

• Students from the HPHS Key Club did an amazing job working with our elementary aged participants. At the beginning of Game Night one participant was very nervous to play the games with so many new people. The Key Club members were so encouraging of her that by the end of the program she hugged them all goodbye and said “I miss them already!” when they left.

Patron Services—Teen (Program Updates from Alice and Diana)

Learning Partners/Homework Help

• Learning Partners continue to provide support to students. The focus continues to be on Reading, Writing, and Math. Our tutors are aware that testing scores are low across the board with all of our students and have been finding different ways to engage students on those subjects. From playing online games, to reading magazine articles, to working with them to create short stories, and focusing on areas/topics of interest.

  
  

• In reading and math, parents have reported an increase in test scores.

  
  

  Teen Advisory Board

• At our February Teen Advisory Board meetings, we discussed their upcoming field trip to the Brushwood Center, finalized our plan for the first HPL Pride Alliance meeting, planned for the Maker Series, and discussed the future of the T@B Podcast. We also had virtual participation from a former TAB member whose family relocated, but who still wants to participate in TAB.

  
  

  Teen Craft Cafe

• This event was led by two TAB members who were willing to provide guidance to the other participants as we learned to crochet. Crafts like crochet can provide stress relief, so after the program participants were able to keep their crochet hooks and yarn to continue their

projects at home. Our intention with events like this is to connect

participants with a lifelong skill they can continue to enjoy beyond the program.

TAC Program: Exploding Books Diana & Alice

• Participants used magazines and paper to create their own “Collage Creatures.” Children, teens, and adults participated and everyone was focused on their creations for the full program. Some of our younger participants really took the opportunity to express their creativity!

  

  
  

  Book Buffet

• In honor of Black History Month, our February Book Buffet selection was “The Black Panther Party: a Graphic Novel History.” Everyone reported that it was an interesting topic and they really liked the style of the book. They said the graphic novel format made factual historical information more engaging than it is in their classes. They also said that the book discussed events they haven’t learned about in school and provided new information about Civil Rights leaders who they had learned about.

  
  

  

  
  

  Teen After Hours

• February Teen After-Hours was a movie night! TAB suggested a schedule to have every other Teen After-Hours be a movie night.

Pop-up Makerspace

• In February Diana and Alice visited the Nuestro Center again to read aloud, distribute library card applications, and do a Valentine’s Day themed craft.

  
  

• All of the students participated in the craft and the leader of the program relayed that it is often difficult to get the elementary aged boys to get involved in craft projects. She also appreciated that the craft was challenging enough for the students and encouraged them to practice their fine motor skills.

  
  

• We visited Northwood Middle School with Nuestro’s YESS program to upcycle T-Shirts into tote bags. The intention of these visits is to teach students practical skills, such as sewing, by applying them in exciting ways.

  
  

• The Middle School aged students in the YESS program, as well as their High School aged volunteers from Loyola Academy all participated and enjoyed themselves.
