Talking about reproductive health can be uncomfortable, but it shouldn't be off-limits. That's why we hosted an open forum on birth control, sexual health, and gender-affirming care in partnership with Planned Parenthood!

We're proud to be a safe space for challenging conversations and compassionate support. Thanks to our amazing Public Health Americorps unit for organizing this event!

Earlier this year, we shared the inspiring story of Floyd Cummings, a former pro boxer who regained his independence after a stay in a nursing home with the help of Association House. We knew his stories and advice would be a hit, but what we didn't expect was our video story making its way across the Internet to Floyd's estranged family! 🀯🀯

πŸ₯³ πŸŽ“ We're proud to announce that the 41st cohort of our Financial Careers Training program has officially graduated! This outstanding group of students has shown serious dedication, committing their time and energy to growing their skills, building relationships, and gaining insider knowledge on the world of finance.

Our graduates nominated two classmates to speak during our graduation ceremony and job fair: Felicia and Ricardo. The stories they shared about their time in the training program were confident and motivating, celebrating their journey as well as the successes of their classmates. πŸ’š

"I was skeptical at first. I read there was a 75% chance of job placement within a few months of graduating. That sounded way too good to be true. Not only can I tell you that I believe that statistic now, but I know for a fact that number will only increase because of how bright our class is," said Ricardo.

"I've learned the importance of commitment, and the meaning behind it," said Felicia. "I want to thank my amazing peers. We pushed each other, we motivated each other, and it was just the best experience ever."

Congratulations to our graduates! πŸ‘ Learn more about Financial Careers Training at associationhouse.org/fct.

We joined the party with job assistance from the House and tips on mental wellness. Thank you to the Shine Bright Community Center for having us!

Few people have left as profound an impact at Association House as our dear friend, Ron Kurz, who passed away in late August. Today, we celebrate and remember his extraordinary legacy.

Ron served as a member of our Board of Directors for 53 years, from 1971 to 2024. Throughout his lifetime of service, Ron’s vision and commitment were instrumental in shaping the direction and success of Association House’s mission.

We vow to honor Ron's spirit of change through our work in the community, and extend our heartfelt condolences to Ron’s family, friends, and all who were fortunate to know him.

Chicago, THANK YOU for making this year's Back 2 School Fair our best yet! We provided free backpacks, school supplies, children's books, and community resources to nearly 600 students. Plus, we raffled off some brand-new bikes, and provided over 70 school physicals!

The House was invited to join in on the back-to-school festivities at Prosser Career Academy with Senator Omar Aquino and State Representative Lilian JimΓ©nez! We talked to over 600 parents and students about how to set their families up for success with the help of our programs, and saw even more smiling faces as kids headed home with brand new backpacks.

We loved getting to give back and celebrate a new school year with such a fun crowd! See you next time, and good luck to every student! πŸ‘¨β€πŸŽ“πŸ“ πŸŽ’

Many of our participants have shared their dreams of starting their own business with us, and we were honored to help give them the tools to take their first steps. Three amazing speakers from Northwest Community Credit Union, the Illinois Department of Commerce, and the Illinois Hispanic Chamber of Commerce joined us for a seminar on starting up a small business!

From accessing capital, networking with other business owners, and applying for business loans, our day was full of inspiration and new knowledge.
