Description
This grant funds the Community Wellness In-Home Visitation Project/Good Neighbor Campaign, which delivers coordinated, nonclinical in-home wellness visits, case management, crisis intervention, and referrals for wraparound support services. The program focuses on supporting at-risk populations in specific Chicago neighborhoods, including seniors, single-parent households, first-time pregnant women, victims of domestic violence, returning citizens, high-risk disengaged youth (ages 16–24 not in school or employment), and low-income families. The initiative aims to address health and social needs and strengthen community connections for these groups.
