Housing Forward was featured in Greater Chicago Legal Clinic’s “Speaking of Justice” podcast. The Greater Chicago Legal Clinic has been an amazing partner for our Homelessness Advice and Representation Program! In the episode “Speaking of Housing Insecurity,” our chief executive officer Lynda Schueler and Greater Chicago Legal Clinic executive director Adam Salzman discuss the state of homelessness in the Chicagoland area and what Housing Forward is doing to combat the issue.
Housing Forward has exciting news! The next step in our response to the COVID-19 crisis is to move clients from hotels to permanent homes. We believe that no one sheltered temporarily due to the pandemic should return to the street.
