Chicago Center

Located in downtown Chicago our Resilience Resource Center serves as our headquarters! We welcome all formerly incarcerated individuals seeking services for reentry. We are a hub for Cook County and surrounding areas providing service navigation and resources to meet individualized self-identified needs.

What We Offer

Unlike our WIN program which requires an application process, our Resilience Resource Center is open to all formerly incarcerated individuals. In fact, the center was developed for that reason, to provide services to justice impacted individuals even if they are not a part of our program.

We truly provide a comprehensive range of services and resources through rituals of care and attentiveness to individual life challenges that they face. The Resilience Resource Center is also a safe space for individuals working towards reentry to use a quiet space, computers, WiFi, or simply find a community of support and connect with other individuals who are committed to their recovery. If you are serious about your reentry, start your personal or professional journey with us!

The Meditation Room

One of the most important, if not the most important part of reentry is your mental health! That is why the Resilience Resource Center is equipped with a fully stocked meditation room. It includes a chaise lounge, yoga mats, muscle foam rollers, tea, a coffee maker, incense, journals, and much more. We strive to host therapy groups sessions here to help individuals psychologically.

The Children's Room

At the Resilience Resource Center we understand the importance of parenting, particularly for formerly incarcerated women who are trying to gain access to their kids again. Which is why the Resilience Resource Center has our very own Children's room! Our children's room is sensory based. It is equipped with books, coloring books, colors, toys, stuff animals, a white board, markers, tic-tac-toe and much more! Children are more than welcomed to play there while you handle what you need to in our center.
