Our volunteer chair rounded up a team of volunteers to help with the US Census Point-In-Time count of the homeless. This work is critical to help paint an accurate picture of how many people living in America experience homelessness and inform public policy and secure federal funding for non-profits.

Federally Qualified Health Centers, the only healthcare resource for millions of vulnerable Illinoisans, are in danger of losing federal funding. There's still time to act.

If you have 2 minutes, call your members of Congress today at 202-224-3121 and demand that they extend funding of health centers in the year-end funding bill they are currently negotiating!
