Facing Forward

Breaking the cycle of homelessness for families and individuals in Chicago through permanent housing, education, advocacy and social services.

Facing Forward is proud to be supported by The @NorthernTrust Foundation in partnership with the @McCormick_Fdn. Together, we are ending generational cycles of homelessness and creating pathways to a brighter future for youth in Chicago. Thank you for your support!

Members of our African American Business Resource Group spent #MartinLutherKingJrDay volunteering on Chicago’s west side. They helped @LINKUnlimited deliver supply baskets to @ff_chicago, a group that provides housing, education, advocacy and social services for people in need.

We love being a part of @Chicago_Wolves Charities, and we appreciate the Wolves for their commitment to helping our neighbors experiencing homelessness.

Big shoutout to our friend, Courtney Mahoney, for being named One of Chicago’s Very Own by @WGNTV!

In Chicago, nearly 18,000 students lack a stable place to call home. That’s roughly the equivalent of one child in every classroom. #chicago #studenthomelessness
