We guide immigrants toward citizenship. We support housing and financial stability. We connect people to healthcare and wellness resources. And we advocate for equal access to justice.
New Community Hub: Connecting Lives, Building Community
A transformative redevelopment is taking shape on Chicago’s riverfront—a 5.3-acre site at 3000 S. Pitney Court, made possible by the generous support of the Sue Ling Gin Foundation. This will be a place for everyone to connect, gather, and thrive. And we want to hear from you.
