Jeff is a well respected Chicago real estate investor who has parlayed his success into so many different directions.
Along with his wife Jennifer Levine, they founded Wolcott College Prep, inspired by their daughter Mollie, their oldest daughter, who struggled in school with dyslexia and learning differences. At a conference with school counselors, Jeff and Jennifer, were told to send Mollie to a large school in the suburbs or to a boarding school. Instead, they founded Walcott College Prep. School, a high school for students with learning differences.
We also learn about Milt's BBQ for the Perplexed, a Jewish Deli, Jeff started to with inspiration from his niece, to employ those with different abilities. It's also a place to display some of the items in from his Jewish Baseball Museum collection, the largest of its type in the country.

Special Fathers Network -
SFN is a dad to dad mentoring program for fathers raising children with special needs. Many of the 500+ SFN Mentor Fathers, who are raising kids with special needs, have said: "I wish there was something like this when we first received our child's diagnosis. I felt so isolated. There was no one within my family, at work, at church or within my friend group who understood or could relate to what I was going through."
SFN Mentor Fathers share their experiences with younger dads closer to the beginning of their journey raising a child with the same or similar special needs. The SFN Mentor Fathers do NOT offer legal or medical advice, that is what lawyers and doctors do. They simply share their experiences and how they have made the most of challenging situations.
