Renaissance Social Services, Inc.

Description

Renaissance Social Services, Inc provides housing and support services for Chicago’s most vulnerable homeless residents. This past year, Renaissance helped more than more than 3,600 people - families and individuals - find homes, address their mental and physical health issues, and reintegrate into their communities.

In 2023, Renaissance served more than 3,600 people throughout Chicago, including:

• 2,186 individuals (911 households) who received resources to prevent homelessness;
• 453 participants who lived in the agency’s permanent supportive housing, including 159 families;
• 258 individuals who were rapidly re-housed; and,
• 723 people living on the streets and in shelters who were connected to housing, health care, and/or behavioral services.

Renaissance offers this broad and depth array of services because the intersection between homelessness, housing instability, and behavioral health needs is broad and requires a continuum of services in order to be effective in meeting the needs of our most vulnerable neighbors.
