On Tuesday, my office had the honor of recognizing Family Focus Belmont Cragin with the Cook County Community Impact award. Family Focus Belmont Cragin serves multiple neighborhoods across the Northwest Side of Chicago including Humboldt Park, Hermosa, Logan Square, Albany Park, Portage Park, and Belmont Cragin.
Through their comprehensive programs, Family Focus Belmont Cragin has become a cornerstone of support for our community’s youth. Their reach spans everything from home visits for new parents, providing them with early infant care resources, to the Parent Mentor Program. Through this mentorship initiative, parents volunteer in their children’s classrooms to provide vital support while also receiving valuable leadership and professional development training. We are deeply grateful to have Family Focus Belmont Cragin in our 8th District and proud to celebrate their dedication to our community.
