Help and hope for low-income working families in the northwest suburbs of Chicago
关于我们
Who We Are FamilyForward is a charitable, nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization governed by a volunteer board of directors and staffed by professionals knowledgeable in the areas of poverty, housing and social services. Our staff, volunteers and supporters are passionate about empowering low-income families to reach for their dreams, create stable households and a better life, and contribute to a stronger community in the process. Our Mission Strengthening northwest suburban families to achieve financial stability and independence through mentoring, rental assistance and support services. How We Help The two main pillars of our two-year program are rent subsidy and mentoring. In addition to financial support for apartment rental, we provide targeted coaching from professional case managers and trained volunteer mentors; strategies to fund tuition costs and other skills training to enable parents to qualify for better, higher paying jobs; and other support services. By working toward defined goals, program participants move from underemployment to better jobs and successful careers. Parents are able to build stable, secure households for their families. Our tagline is Mentor. Empower. Thrive. This action statement succinctly conveys both the heart of the work we do and the remarkable progress of families who complete our two-year program. You can help by volunteering your time, donating goods, becoming a mentor, or participating as an individual or corporate financial supporter.

The family speaker at our recent Giving Hope event was Mom J, a recent FamilyForward graduate. When she applied to participate in our program following the sudden death of her husband, Mom J knew she needed rent assistance to keep the family in their apartment and keep her children at their same elementary school. She also knew she needed mentors to guide her as she adjusted to life as a single-income family. Read Mom J's inspiring story of rising above overwhelming challenges to rebuild her life after a family tragedy: https://lnkd.in/gX5qsV2c
