HABITAT CHICAGO AT WORK IN GREATER GRAND CROSSING

Habitat Chicago has been working in Greater Grand Crossing since 2016, building on the existing strengths of the community alongside neighborhood leaders. Our current work in Greater Grand Crossing includes:

 

Neighborhood Grants Initiative: This initiative, developed from our experience with our Block Build program, provides support for small-scale projects to neighbors who want to do something together in order to show pride in their block. It is a chance for neighbors to reconnect with each other and their community while simultaneously improving the visual appeal of their environment. Learn more about the program here.

 

Affordable Homeownership: We will again build homes in Greater Grand Crossing starting in 2028, while continuing to acquire new land in the neighborhood. New homes are purchased by families who qualify for our Affordable Homeownership Program and commit to taking homeownership courses and completing volunteer hours. Learn more about the program here.
