The Chicago Teacher Education Pipeline is a partnership by Illinois State University and the Chicago Public School District to prepare qualified teachers for high-need schools. The partners' mission is to increase urban teacher recruitment and improve urban teacher retention through immersive programming. The Chicago Teacher Education Pipeline program began in 2003 through a United States Department of Education, No Child Left Behind federal earmark grant of $198,000. Its office is located in Chicago, Illinois in the Little Village neighborhood. The Chicago Teacher Education Pipeline also partners with Enlace-Chicago in Little Village, the Greater Auburn Gresham Community Development Corporation in Auburn Gresham, and the North River Commission in Albany Park. It is developing a new model for educational renewal through the construction of a community-based residential facility for teacher candidates. The project seeks to address the issue of a shortage of teachers in Chicago’s public schools by focusing on recruitment, urban teacher preparation, community-based clinical experiences, faculty development and research. ==Program focus== The focus of the program is to develop sustainable responses to challenges faced by urban school districts in hiring effective teachers.〔() Jacob, Brian A.
