Youth HYPE Housing Program

At Northwest Compass' Youth HYPE Housing Program in Park Ridge, IL, we believe that everyone deserves a safe place to call home. We empower young adults aged 18-24 to take charge of their housing situations through our comprehensive services, designed to provide practical and effective solutions to homelessness and housing instability. Our Walk-In Entry Point Center connects residents to vital resources, while our limited financial assistance helps prevent evictions and foreclosures. We also offer career coaching, money management education, and advocacy for those facing housing challenges. As a partner of the Greater Chicago Food Depository, we provide access to a food pantry and assist clients with SNAP and Medicaid applications. At Northwest Compass, our dedicated staff treats everyone with dignity, striving to turn crises into opportunities each day, with support services provided free of charge to all members of our community.
