THRIVE

Family Wellness through Community Connections

Chicago Collaborative for Thriving Families (THRIVE) is a 3-month aftercare program designed to support Intact families within Austin, Humboldt Park and West Garfield Park (zip codes 60644, 60651, and 60624). THRIVE connects families to the resources they need, right when they need them, close to home. 

Through this initiative, we work closely with families to identify their unique goals and connect them with a network of community partners that can help them achieve those goals. Our team provides ongoing support and celebrates the progress and successes of each family, ensuring they have access to the benefits and resources that will help them continue to succeed. 

Community-focused Impact

THRIVE is grounded in the belief that strong families are the cornerstone of healthy communities. By addressing challenges before they escalate, THRIVE aims to achieve significant long-term benefits:

  • A reduction in child abuse and neglect cases
  • Fewer emergency hotline calls and child removals
  • Enhanced access to community resources and support
  • Improved family wellness and stability

THRIVE ensures that families receive the resources and support they need to thrive, reducing their reliance on emergency interventions.

Key THRIVE Partners

THRIVE is an innovative partnership between Kaleidoscope, Bethel New Life, and Safe Families. Other key providers on the West Side include Breakthrough Urban Ministries and BUILD, Inc.
