OUR MISSION
According to our most current census data, 76,998 Chicagoans experienced homelessness in 2018.
With the help of supporters like you, families and individuals in our program are able to access affordable housing and move beyond homelessness, making decisions based on their own goals, desires, and family well-being.
These concrete steps toward the future are the core of what it means to face forward. It emphasizes self-determination and a proactive strengths based approach. It’s the philosophy that we embody, in both how we support our clients and how we operate as an organization.
