“The Village” is a broad-based collaborative community organization providing assistance to the inner-city families of Chicago. We are currently based in the Roseland, Pullman, Morgan Park communities. Services are available in several of the Catholic and Protestant churches in the area. We are reaching out to share with others the survival kit for life to help complete educational goals, economic self-sufficiency through empowerment skills, parenting classes, job training and placement. Most of all we are giving our neighborhoods a chance to live in peace and harmony.
