ICNA Relief Chicago Transitional Housing Initiative Adds New Unit in the Suburbs

Where other charities' work often ends, ICNA Relief Chicago's work starts. “We not only cut a check for the needy, but help them get back on their feet as individuals and families,” says Sister Atya Kazmi, Coordinator, Muslim Family Services, providing a brief overview of ICNA Relief Chicago’s ‘Whole-Individual’, holistic approach to well-being. “We offer counseling, driving lessons and legal assistance, help find accommodation, procure cars and even provide job skills training. The intention is to help our clients move out of poverty and find overall emotional health and stability.”

For our transitional housing program, we are approached most by women and children who are homeless. What is the cost, per month, of helping a family get back on their feet? Approximately $3000 including rent, utilities, grocery bills, case management. Would you like a share in the blessings by supporting them?
