CLARETIAN ASSOCIATES' THREE PILLARS OF FOCUS:
HOUSING
COVENING AROUND CRITICAL ISSUES
VIOLENCE PREVENTION
​By taking a whole person, whole community approach, Claretian Associates (CA) strives to improve the South Chicago neighborhood by initially focusing on housing security and secondarily, by tackling a wide spectrum of interconnected needs including health, income, and education, among others. The three pillars of focus that direct Claretian Associates’ work are: housing, convening around critical issues and violence prevention. Our programs are designed to not only provide safe, quality, affordable housing, but also to provide services to support families as they work to become more stable and enhance their quality of life. ​Claretian Associates has seven areas of concentration by which it serves the surrounding community. 


​CLARETIAN ASSOCIATES’ HOUSING
Claretian Associates owns and manages over 240 apartments for families
and seniors over 55+. Many apartments have subsidies. Housing
Choice Voucher Program/Section 8 vouchers are welcome.

SAFETY
Through our violence prevention programs we make sure that
families are safe in South Chicago, children have safe routes to go
to school, and provide opportunities for at-risk youth.

HOUSING AND FINANCIAL COUNSELING
Claretian Associates’ housing counseling program aims to provide
renters with the resources and tools they need to stay housed
and prepare them to become homeowners in the future. We offer
education on healthy housing practices including, asthma triggers,
pest control, and more.

​YOUTH AND LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT
​THROUGH WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT SKILL BUILDING AND TRAINING
 
Much of Claretian’s programing aims to not only provide service,
but also to train entry level employees and give them the experience
to move on to a better paying job or career track.

ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS
We design a month long program to inform South Chicago
residents about existing and proposed green initiatives throughout
the local community.

FOOD SECURITY
We work to strengthen the Southeast Chicago Food Network by
connecting local pantries to food resources. Our pantries provide
low-income families with healthy foods, bringing new awareness
about available healthy food for those with limited resources.

ACCESS TO SOCIAL AND HEALTH SERVICES FOR SENIORS AND FAMILIES
Claretian Associates provides access to social and health services for seniors and families. By tackling a wide spectrum of interconnected needs including health, income, and education, among others, we  
connect community members with the tools to empower themselves.
