URban Youth and Chess Strategies

Orrin, a motivational speaker and two-time chess champion, has blazed a trail throughout America teaching and motivating youth.

He has been a source of inspiration using chess as a stimulus for children to learn the very adult concepts of responsibility, discipline, and self-reliance. He teaches them to believe in their own ideas and to learn from their decisions.

Orrin's work has been featured in USA Today, CNN Headline News and CNN American Stories. "

This story makes as lot of sense to me, especially because we live in inner city Chicago, and the youth are crazy about chess here....
