Credit union aims to create nancial opportunity

Self-Help Federal Credit Union provides nancial ser vices at North Avenue branch

By FRANCIA GARCIA HERNANDEZ Staff Reporter

On the left side of the building, a wall is covered with black-and-white photographs of labor and civil rights activists Dolores Huerta and Cesar Chavez and historic institutions like the Food Processors Credit Union and the Seaway National Bank of Chicago, among other notable figures. The words on the wall read “We lend. We build. We serve.”

On the opposite side are the doors to a large-capacity meeting room that is available to nonprofit groups and other community members at no cost.

This is Self-Help Federal Credit Union’s Oak Park branch at 6011 W. North Ave. At this location, which opened earlier this year, the branch is poised to serve individuals and families in surrounding Chicagoland communities like Austin, Galewood and Belmont Cragin.

Grassroots response to in ux of asylum-seekers in Austin

By FRANCIA GARCIA HERNANDEZ Staff Reporter

Volunteers and local organizations are responding to the needs of asylum-seekers sheltering in police stations in the Austin neighborhood, as re ported by this publication last week. In the last two weeks, a group comprised of volunteers and re presentatives of local organizations and social services providers sat together in two meetings convened by BUILD Chicago to evaluate the situation and try to organize a coordinated response.

The goal of the many groups and individuals is to move from simply providing for immediate needs for food and shelter, and to begin building an infrastructure to create ongoing services to meet the complex and ongoing needs of the asylum-seekers. Among the attendees at the meetings are police leaders from the Chicago Police De-

partment’s 15th and 25th districts, re presentatives from Family Focus, a nonprofit organization that runs several Illinois Welcoming Centers in partnership with the Illinois Department of Human Services, BUILD Chicago leaders, Beyond Hunger re presentatives, Austin Coming Together re presentatives and members of the volunteer group known as the Police Station Response Team.

“We don’t have an infrastructure, we have a WhatsApp chat,” said Celine Wo znica and Kate Nolan, volunteers for the Police Station Response Team. The “room for inequity is enormous,” they said.

The situation these organizations and volunteers are responding to is fluid and complex, as it is unknown how long the city of Chicago will continue to use police stations to shelter incoming asylumseekers, mostly from Venezuela, but also from other Latin American countries. Volunteers and local leaders also don’t know how many more asylum-seekers will arrive in Chicago or for how long large groups of asylum-seekers bused from states like Texas will continue to arrive

In addition, changes in federal immigration policies may impact the number of mi-

grants and asylum-seekers who arrive in the U.S. and consequently, in Chicago. For example, after the COVID-19-related directive known as Title 42 expired on May 11, the country expected an increase in people crossing the U.S.-Mexico border, but in the first two days after it expired, U.S. border patrol agents saw a 50% drop in the number of migrants crossing the border, as reported by the news outlet Reuters.

Anna Cameron Gomberg, one of the organizers of the Police Station Response Team for the 15th district, said the volunteer-led group started when she found out asylum-seekers were sheltering at the 15th District police station, 5701 W. Madison St., without access to social services at the beginning of May.

The group provides three to four hot meals a day to asylum-seekers at the police stations, donates clothing, shoes, personal items, phone and SIM cards, blankets, towels and other items to asylum-seekers. When they can, they provide information or transportation, help connect individuals to services they need and partner with local organizations. T hey

25TH DISTRIC T

Neighbors’ safety concerns

from page 1

One of the district councils’ primary responsibilities is to improve communications between the community and police, and much of the first meeting was devoted to fielding questions from residents in attendance. While some were supportive of the district council’s mission, others questioned whether the district councils were

even necessary and expressed concerns that police refor ms would hinder the ability of police to solve crimes. There was also some confusion among police officers and residents in attendance about the council’s role in changing police policies and other aspects of its role

The meeting was originally supposed to take place on May 31 at 6 p.m., at Belmont Cragin’s El Artesanal Coffee & Market Co., 5217 W. Diversey Ave. But the public notice for the meeting wasn’t sent out 48 hours in advance, forcing the council to push back the meeting to June 1, still at 6 p.m., and

change venues. The council plans to rotate meetings between the many neighborhoods that fall within the 25th District, with the next meeting set to take place on June 22 at 6 p.m. at Austin’s Amundsen Park fieldhouse, 6200 W. Bloomingdale Ave.

In July 2021, Chicago’s City Council approved a package of police refor ms that created the city-wide Community Commission for Public Safety and Accountability and three-member councils for each of the city’s 22 police districts. The councils were elected during the Feb. 28 mayoral election and swor n in on May 5.

Each council will serve as a liaison between the community and the police, getting input from residents on what issues each district should prioritize and the best way to handle those issues. They allow the public to weigh in on what officers are doing wrong and what the officers are doing right. Finally, the councils will be responsible for selecting candidates for CCPSA. The commission currently has seven members who were appointed by then-mayor Lori Lightfoot on an interim basis.

The 25th police district is the largest and the most diverse district on the West Side, encompassing Galewood, North Austin, West Humboldt Park, Montclare, BelmontCragin and Hermosa. It also includes about a fourth of Logan Square and small portions of Avondale and Dunning. The three candidates who won the election reflect that diversity -- special needs healthcare professional Angelica Green hails from North Austin, activist Saul Arellano lives in West Humboldt Park and event organizer Jacob Arena lives in Avondale

On May 24, the council for the 11th district, which includes the two Garfield Parks and half of North Lawndale, met for the first time. That meeting, which Green attended, mostly focused on setting member roles and council bylaws, and residents in attendance complained about not being heard.

The 25th District meeting touched on organizational matters as well. The council unanimously voted to make Arena the chair, put Arellano in charge of community engagement and make Green a member of the inter-council committee that will select city-wide nominees. The council also approved its bylaws without discussion.

Arena told Austin Weekly News the bylaws will be available on the council page of the CCPSA website, but he said that, because there is only one CCPSA employee handing the online presence for all 22 district councils, he had no control over when the bylaws will be up. The bylaws were not available online as of June 6.

But the council spent most of the meet-

ing taking questions from the attendees Some of the questions centered around the council’s powers – which revealed that even some police officers are in the dark about what the refor ms entailed. A 25th District CAPS officer asked about the council’s policy-changing powers and how those changes are determined. Green responded that district councils can only suggest changes – CCPSA is the entity which has policychanging powers. While she didn’t go into detail about the commission’s role, CCPSA has the power to recommend policy changes, but it and CPD are le gally required to negotiate something both sides can ag ree to before any changes are approved.

Many questions were about operations Most notably, one resident asked if materials would be available in English and Spanish – an important concern for a district that, overall, has a large Hispanic population.

“In the next [meeting], we will be making sure everything is [available] in Spanish and it’s’ also translated,” said Arellano.

Several attendees shared their public safety concerns, and one attendee wondered what was happening with the asylum-seekers from Central and South American countries that are being sheltered at the 25th District police station. Arellano responded that the migrants have been getting food and local charities have been providing support

Austin community activist Bertha Purnell asked that, when working on violence reduction, the council doesn’t focus on major players and work with smaller, local organizations. Green assured her that they would.

Several speakers shared skepticism about the police reform. Hermosa Neighborhood Association Executive Director Alma Kreuser, a regular at 25th district police meetings, reiterated her ongoing concerns that legislation aimed at providing alternatives to prison sentences for minor offenses would make crime worse, and asked the council to alert residents of such legislation.

“While [some] may not think it’s a big deal, to me it is. They’re slowly, the city government, the local gover nment, the state gover nment, are peeling away at every opportunity to apprehend people,” Kreuser said. “Just something, so we’re aware of what’s happening, or do we have a say? Because I think these lawmakers are making rules for us, and it’s not helping us at all.”

ASYLUM-SEEKERS Infrastructure needed

from page 3

also collect information on the current needs of asylum-seekers at the police station, so they can respond as needed.

“We hope to be creating the start of an infrastructure that should have been there,” Gomberg and other volunteers told this publication.

Currently, this response is being organized out of the volunteer group’s WhatsApp chat, handwritten lists of needed items pulled to gether by volunteers at police stations, Excel files, food made in volunteers’ kitchens or donated by local restaurants and personal items and clothing being collected by volunteers.

The need is continuous as police stations continue to be used as shelters as the city’s shelters and respite centers are at capacity, though police stations do not have the infrastructure to serve as shelters. They do not have proper sleeping facilities, showers or kitchens that can be used to serve asylum-seekers. Also, when a group or individual leaves the police station, other asylum-seekers arrive, creating a continuous need for resources.

As a result, the response continues to evolve and changes from week to week. For example, during the week of May 22, the Kinfolk CoLab, an Oak Park-based space for BIPOC led groups, of fered to store clothing and other items at their location so volunteers from the Police Station Response Team could sort and organize collected items before distributing them at the 15th District police station. After volunteers and re presentatives from local organizations held their first meeting on May 25, BUILD Chicago opened the doors of its Austin campus so asylumseekers in the 15th and 25th districts can use their showers and laundry facilities at coordinated times and dates throughout the week. Some of the items collected by volunteers and others obtained by BUILD Chicago are also now distributed to asylum-seekers at BUILD Chicago, not only the police station.

As the asylum-seekers come to BUILD Chicago, 5100 W. Harrison St., org anizers and volunteers wish to be able to address more of their needs, including access to wraparound services. Last week, BUILD Chicago’s staf f started connecting with asylum-seekers and connected a pregnant woman to a healthcare provider while she

was on-site, Jessica Carrillo, director of Clinical and Community Wellness Programs at BUILD, said.

The local nonprofit Family Focus could bring case management services, like the ones provided at its locations that serve as Illinois Welcoming Centers to a centralized location in Austin. That way, it would be easier for asylum-seekers to get assistance and navigate services provided by different organizations, each with their own system.

“We need to org anize, right now we’re just responding,” Mariana Osoria, senior vice president of partnerships and eng agement at Family Focus, said.

Some of these services include specialized immigration counseling and translation services, application to eligible benefits like rent assistance, health care, mental health, early childhood services, job placement services, education and English classes, among many other needs.

Yet, as they continue to meet, a prevalent concern is the need for infrastructure and a system that ensures an equitable distribution of resources and wraparound services

“The priority is finding permanent housing and getting them outside of police stations,” said Adam Alonso, CEO of BUILD. Meeting attendees discussed options to coordinate ways for asylum-seekers to find housing in the area and, if possible, apply for rental assistance, though individuals are not required to stay in Austin. Yet, this step could help asylum-seekers as they navigate their individual immigration processes

Another concern is their access to continuous wraparound services, especially if they leave the police stations after they find housing or other shelters.

“It’s important for the community to show up for Venezuelan brothers and sisters,” said Crystal Gardner, Austin community activist and volunteer for the Police Station Response Team at the first meeting. She added it is a priority to ensure there is an equitable distribution of resources among all asylum-seekers in the Austin area, though there currently is no for mal infrastructure to do so.

Volunteers and local organization leaders continue to work to g ether to respond to the ongoing challenges and find longterm solutions, while searching for solutions from other social services providers, elected officials from the city, state and sur rounding villages, and other nonprofit leaders.

West Gar eld next up for Quality of Life plan

First draft expected to be released this fall

By IGOR STUDENKOV Staff Reporter

The Garfield Park Community Council, Garfield Park Rite to Wellness collaborative are working with the Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC) Chicago to develop the first-ever West Garfield Park Quality of Life Plan.

Since the late 1990s, LISC has been working with community organizations throughout Chicago – including in Austin, East Garfield Park and North Lawndale – to figure out the best way to address local needs and priorities. This year, LISC looked at the applicants that were previously rejected, which is how Rite to Wellness, which applied to get help with a West Garfield Park plan in 2021, got a second shot.

much of their efforts have been focused on the latter.

La Shone Kelly, who currently serves as Rite to Wellness’ interim executive director, said her organization and the community council applied for the Quality of Life Plan assistance in 2021. When they weren’t accepted in that year’s cohort, they were determined to do some kind of plan, since West Garfield Park’s needs were simply too great. The collaborative developed the Sankofa Village plan, which sought to revitalize the neighborhood’s long-struggling Madison/Pulaski corridor with a combination of healthcare, business development, nutritional and recreational amenities. But Kelly said they were still interested in doing something more comprehensive

“This year, to our delight, LISC did a different type of program,” she said. “They went through applications [from organizations] that already applied and began selecting applicants in line with what LISC was interested in supporting.”

The CROP Team wishes to acknowledge and thank Wednesday Journal/Growing Community Media for their many years of outstanding generosity and continual community support!

The planning process has an ambitious timeline – the groups plan to release the first draft of the plan this fall. But officials from organizations argued that their groups and many other organizations in West Garfield Park had already done plenty of planning –it’s just the question of bringing it all together, figuring out the priorities they agreed on and getting more public input to flesh it out.

LISC’s website describes Quality of Life plans as “visions for a community’s future created and owned by the community [that] have served as a guide for investments and actions.” In every case, it teams up with a “lead agency” – usually a community organization – and brings other organizations on board. LISC previously teamed up with Garfield Park’s community council in 2005 to develop the East Garfield Park Quality of Life Plan. More recently, it worked with the North Lawndale Community Coordinating Council and the Austin Coming Together coalition to develop the second North Lawndale plan and the first-ever Austin plan, respectively

The Garfield Park Rite to Wellness Collaborative was established by a group of West Side nonprofits, including the community council, “to identify, promote and implement strategies to increase health and wellness” for East and West Garfield Park – though

Jake Ament, who heads the corporation’s neighborhood programs, said it was looking for communities where there is already “momentum” towards the plan and to build off the planning efforts that are already there.

Lauren Lewis, who is heading LISC’s West Garfield Park planning, said the feedback the organization got over the years was that the planning process didn’t involve local youth from the beginning to end

“So, the mission here, is to make sure that the youth are present in the room and at the table, in the [planning process], all throughout,” she said.

Lewis also said the planning process “is not in the silo” -- they will be working together with organizations in North Lawndale and Austin, and while the plan will focus on West Garfield Park, it won’t necessarily be bound by the neighborhood borders.

She and Ament said the plan will include some concrete actions the organizations can take in the near term, so the plan doesn’t end up gathering dust.

LISC announced this year’s selections, which also include plan updates for BelmontCragin and Little Village, on May 8. While the community council and Rite to Wellness are leading the planning process, they brought on board a whole slew of institutions

and organizations that are either West Garfield Park-based or have significant presence in the neighborhood. Many of them, such as MAAFA Redemption Project and West Side United, are members of the collaborative.

Marshall Hatch, Jr., MAAFA executive director, said he appreciated the bottom-up approach LISC was taking with the Quality of Life plan.

“It’s not often that it happens,” he said. “Usually, you have organizations parachuting in and [saying] this is the way it’s going to be. It has a paternalistic aspect.”

The planning process is currently in the early input-gathering stages. The group is tentatively planning two in-person meetings and one virtual meeting for stakeholders, and discussing a “community tour” in July, but no firm details ha been set.

“We’re using all the tools in the bag -knocking door to door, using our partners in network [to get the word out], going to schools, faith-based groups, businesses,” she said. “We’re not leaving any stones unturned. So, if we miss someone and they don’t hear from us, it would not be for the lack of effort.”

Kelly added they also plan to use the Citizen Space phone application to engage with residents and gather their ideas

Taylor said she doesn’t expect the planning process to take too long because thinking of ways to improve the quality of life in the community is a daily reality for them, and their organizations have already been thinking of strategies.

Kelly agreed, comparing the process to bringing to ether “pieces of the uzzle, so

an become a member ining access to all services and products of fered by Self-Help Federal Credit Union.

“I think one of the largest differences is a finance institute typically is owned by investors whereas a credit union is owned by the membership,” Daniel Martinez, director of mortgage origination, said. As a result, he said, members “speak volumes” into determining what products they want the credit union to offer.

In its mission to expand economic opportunity, the credit union has designed specific products that help its members buy a home and are not as common in the financial marketplace.

“We are breaking down barriers to home ownership because we understand that home ownership is the primary vehicle through which individuals can build wealth,” Ruiz said.

One of these products is the equity boost home loans, which stands out for being a mortgage that requires 0% down payment, finances up to 5% of closing costs of the home purchase and requires a minimum credit score of 580, among other requirements

These terms help many of the homebuyers the credit union serves overcome the barriers to home ownership, such as low credit scores, insufficient savings for a down payment or insufficient funds to cover the closing costs of a home purchase

As it recently opened in the area, the credit

union has gar nered interest from people who stop by to ask what a credit union does or are looking for personal loans, Ruiz said.

“What we’re seeing is individuals coming back because they heard about our credit building loan,” Ruiz said.

Popular among credit union members in the Cicero branch, which serves many Latino communities, the credit building loan helps individuals build or fix their credit history.

Also known as the “tanda loan,” a Spanish word in reference to an infor mal savings scheme popular in the Latino communities In a “tanda,” friends and family get together once a week to pool together a portion of their paychecks and rotate getting the accumulated sum for the week, allowing them to save more money than they would traditionally be able to

Similarly, the credit building loan helps individuals access a certain amount of money in a savings account after they complete recurrent payments that add up to the requested amount.

‘Imagine you come in and you get the loan, and you say, ‘I want $1,000 and I want to pay it off in 12 months,’” Ruiz said. “So, what we’ll do is we’ll put $1,000 and we’ll put in a savings account for you, so you don’t have to come up with $1,000.”

“So, you’re making your payments every month and we’re reporting that payment to the credit bureaus. So, by the time you get to that 12 payment, we now release the funds and we say, here’s your $1,000.”

“You had a full year of credit that was being reported, so now you have money and you have good credit,” he said.

Lauro Sinchi Chamba, a member of SelfHelp Federal Credit Union, first learned about the credit union because of the “tanda loan.”

“They helped me improve my credit so that I could buy a home,” he told the Austin Weekly News in Spanish, adding staf f members helped him understand how credit works.

Last week, he completed the purchase of his home through a mortgage loan from Self-Help Credit Union. He said he improved his credit score through personal loans that helped him buy furniture for his new home. He was never late on his payments, he said, and now he has a home with two units, one where he will live and one he will rent.

“We start noticing as individuals start building credit on getting credit builder loans, personal loans, credit cards then after they star t going to bigger loans [like] small personal loans, car loans and then once you’re successful, they’re motivated to purchase a home,” Martinez said.
