We’re honored to share that Family Rescue is receiving a grant through United Way of Metro Chicago’s Response Fund.

Across the Chicago region, the housing crisis is putting immense pressure on individuals and families — high rent, eviction risk, and lost or unstable income. This support helps us respond when our neighbors need it most.

Through the Response Fund, United Way of Metro Chicago is investing $250,000 in 20 organizations — including Family Rescue — to immediately address housing and homelessness prevention, as needs continue to rise in the latest 211 Metro Chicago data.

The need is growing: United Way of Metro Chicago’s 24/7 social services helpline saw a 56% increase in housing-related requests from Cook County residents in April 2026 compared to April 2025. Housing support also made up 65% of all needs identified through 2-1-1.
