Our Story

Desirable, dignified housing for those in transition.

We are a faith-based, community development organization and our mission is to end homelessness and hopelessness in the City of Chicago, and the North of Howard area in Rogers Park.

Our Beliefs

Everyone should have a home at a price they can afford. To help make that possible, we’ve designed a housing continuum that meets residents where they are - with options of transitional and permanent housing.
