WHAT WE DO
HOW YOU CAN HELP
The Night Ministry is a Chicago-based nonprofit whose mission is to provide human connection, housing support and health care to those who are unhoused or experiencing poverty. With an open heart, we compassionately accept each individual as they are and work alongside them to advocate for their immediate physical, emotional and social needs, while affirming our shared humanity. We invite you to join us in our hopefilled work.
Support: Your financial generosity provides housing and supportive services to unhoused adolescents and young adults, free, basic health care to individuals unable to access it elsewhere and compassionate, nonjudgmental relationships that bring hope and help change lives. Visit thenightministry.org/donate.
For many unhoused and precariously housed youth, The Night Ministry provides a vital first step toward safety and improved circumstances. Our youth programs offer safe living environments and supportive services that help young people stabilize and build foundations for independent futures. Our housing programs range from overnight shelter to long-term transitional living and include a two-year program for pregnant and parenting young mothers and their children. The Night Ministry also supports young people who have experienced homelessness and are now living in their own apartments through a partnership with other local nonprofits. The Night Ministry’s health outreach program brings accessible, compassionate health care, resources such as food and clothing, and supportive services directly to Chicago residents experiencing homelessness or poverty. Our health outreach bus, featuring a specially designed nurse’s office, visits Chicago neighborhoods with high concentrations of poverty and homelessness. Our street medicine team supports individuals living in encampments and other sites, addressing their immediate health and survival needs and linking them to resources like housing. The Night Ministry also assists members of Chicago’s unsheltered population who ride public transit for shelter by bringing our services to select CTA stations.
