MOBILE HOMELESS DISTRIBUTIONS

We are one of the very few charities that does mobile distributions every week in the city of Chicago! Volunteers and staff members take our cargo van outside shelters on the south and west sides to distribute care packages to the homeless. Care packages consist of food, clothing items, hygiene products, etc.

SKILL DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM
Our mentors and teachers are certified and experienced in working with refugees and domestic violence/trafficking survivors. After our clients have been resettled our teachers and mentors work with them both one on one and in-class to not only develop English reading and writing skills but to also improve their resumes and job interview skills!

RESETTLEMENT PROGRAM
We furnish transitional apartments for homeless families, refugees, domestic violence and trafficking survivors exiting shelters/entering the country. Along with furnishings we ensure that we provide essentials like hygiene items, cleaning supplies, school supplies, clothing and other basics so resettlement families have everything they need to pursue upward mobility immediately. This is our largest program, on average we resettle 2-4 families a week. We purchase beds, dressers and other discounted items from Good360 , Costco and Wal-Mart.
