About us
ROC ED is located Thornton Township, Illinois in southeastern Cook County. The township is identified as strong, vibrant and family oriented, attracting many former residents of the city of Chicago.
To improve the educational preparedness of children within our community, ROC ED began providing before and after school services in August 2010. ROC ED has since expanded its programming to provide summer enrichment, Youth Peacemaker Pods for high school students, and e-learning assistance. ROC ED has engaged our community by offering holiday music and spoken word recitals, food drives, violence-prevention activities, festivals, craft bazaars, COVID-19 testing and vaccinations and other special events.
