Mission
Cornerstone Community Outreach was incorporated in 1989 to improve the quality of life for disadvantaged, displaced, & underprivileged Chicagoans from all walks of life through various need-centered programs. We feed the hungry, house the homeless, & provide needed resources & programs all to encourage growth, foster potential, & lay foundations for stability. Our aim is not merely to help individuals survive, but to thrive.The three major shelters of Cornerstone Community Outreach are:Hannah Interim - a 120 day shelter for women with children under 12.Naomi Interim - a 120 day shelter for single women.Sylvia Interim - a 120 day shelter for families.All these programs have similar goals of assisting the client with food, clothing, housing, casework and advocacy service, to help transition the individual to permanent and independent living.
