At Northwest Compass in Park Ridge, IL, we believe that everyone deserves a stable place to call home. Our Youth HYPE Housing Program empowers individuals aged 18-24, guiding them through their housing challenges and helping them achieve optimal solutions tailored to their unique situations. Through our Entry Point Center, we connect residents to essential resources and provide support for those facing eviction or homelessness. Our program offers limited financial assistance for homelessness prevention, money management counseling, and career coaching to prepare clients for employment. In partnership with the Greater Chicago Food Depository, we also assist with SNAP and Medicaid applications and provide access to our food pantry, available monthly for all residents. Our compassionate team is dedicated to treating everyone with respect, ensuring that each person feels welcome and supported during their journey from crisis to stability. All our services are provided free of charge, reflecting our commitment to nurturing resilient communities in the Northwest Suburbs of Cook County.
