Chicago Rehab Network
Housing, like health care and education, is critical for family and community success. Healthy communities need safe, decent, affordable housing so that residents can hold jobs, pursue schooling, raise families, and live stable lives.
Housing, like health care and education, is critical for family and community success. Healthy communities need safe, decent, affordable housing so that residents can hold jobs, pursue schooling, raise families, and live stable lives.
The Chicago Rehab Network (CRN) is a citywide coalition of neighborhood and community based development organizations founded in 1977 by community groups seeking to pool expertise and share information. The coalition membership consists of over 40 housing organizations representing over 60 city neighborhoods.
For 30 years, the Chicago Rehab Network (CRN) has worked to further the development and preservation of safe affordable housing in Chicago, and throughout the state of Illinois. CRN builds capacity of community developers through training and technical assistance, conducts research to measure needs and clarify challenges to affordable housing development, and advocates for sound housing policy on the city, state and federal level.
Spanish Coalition for Housing
Mission
SCH’s mission is to provide comprehensive counseling, education and housing resources necessary for Latinos and other low-to-moderate income families in the Chicagoland area, develop competence and responsibility in meeting their financial and housing needs, and advocate for and proactively promote additional resources for them.
History
In 1966, Spanish Coalition for Housing began as a collaboration of groups from Chicago’s north and south sides that sought to address issues facing the Latino community. During this early stage SCH became a leader in the fight against housing discrimination, redlining, and disinvestment from financial institutions. SCH organized regular meetings with the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), the Dept. of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), and the City of Chicago to advocate on behalf of the Latino community. In 1973, SCH became the very first organization to be certified as a Housing Counseling Agency by the Department of Housing and Urban Development. SCH continued advancing new ideas in financial education and housing but found meteoric growth when in 1992 SCH was hand-selected by HUD to pilot a new housing counseling program and in 1996 when SCH became the Chicago Housing Authority’s Latino offices administrator.
The most recent financial crisis has further pushed SCH to the forefront of housing in Chicago. Since 2007 we have seen a 996% increase in clients seeking foreclosure prevention. We also expanded our financial education, renter and landlord education programs to promote financial stability and prevent foreclosure, before it starts.
We have three locations to serve the North and South sides of Chicago and now see over 10,000 clients per year. We continue to deliver quality programs and compassionate service to all residents in need. We are your ally when you need help.

The Cara Program
We know that we cannot solve the problems of homelessness and poverty alone, so we partner with a wide range of organizations to serve those in need. The Cara Program collaborates with more than 100 community organizations to identify and enroll individuals who will benefit the most from our services. After years of working with this population, we have established admissions criteria to best recognize those who are ready to take the necessary steps to transform their lives. Candidates must be motivated, complete a phone screening, attend a one-on-one interview, pass a drug test, and be clean and sober. We train referral partners, such as Mercy Housing Lakefront, Catholic Charities, Salvation Army, Haymarket Center, St. Martin de Porres and many others, to recognize suitable candidates for The Cara Program. The Cara Program is also a member of the 741 Collaborative, a partnership of Chicago-based not-for-profit agencies dedicated to a cooperative workforce development and job placement services model. Together, with all of our partners, we provide wrap around services that are effective and efficient.
