For more than 100 years, The Chicago Community Trust has convened, supported, funded, and accelerated the work of community members and changemakers committed to strengthening the Chicago region. From building up our civic infrastructure to spearheading our response to the Great Recession, the Trust has brought our community together to face pressing challenges and seize our greatest opportunities. Today, that means confronting the racial and ethnic wealth gap.

The Road Map Initiative, convened by Heartland Alliance Health (HAH) and Smart Policy Works (SPW), aims to disrupt cycling across crisis services with interventions like stabilization housing, outreach, engagement, and case management support to address the social determinants of health. In 2022, the Road Map Initiative (RMI) launched a Flexible Services Pilot to provide outreach and engagement services to the nearly 3,000 individuals cycling across emergency systems in Chicago and Cook County. The RMI Flexible Services Pilot successfully stabilized 31 individuals who are experiencing homelessness and are pre-treatment and pre-diagnosis. Our official pilot period ended on 9/30/23 and we seek support for rental assistance for participants who have been on the Coordinated Entry System, Chicago’s housing waitlist, for as long as 16 months but have not been matched to permanent housing. We are currently spending approximately $12,000.00 a month on rental assistance for Master Leasing Arrangements with a private landlord, Mercy Housing Lakefront, and a private SRO operator for 17 participants. We are working with Continuum of Care (CoC) to find permanent housing solutions for our participants but are facing a gap in funding for supporting rent. We respectfully seek support from the Chicago Community Trust for rental assistance through January, 2024 while we work with the CoC and others to resolve their housing crisis.
