ONE CITY.
ONE MISSION.
OUR VISION
Together Chicago exists to be a catalyst for lasting change by reducing gun violence and increasing thriving communities in our city.
OUR MISSION
We catalyze faith, business, community, and government leaders to inspire hope and bring about peace and justice in the communities we serve.
OUR STRATEGY
We focus on five areas: economic development, education, violence reduction, gospel justice, and faith-community mobilization.
What do we do？
Together Chicago Focus Areas
We cultivate economic thriving through job creation, entrepreneurial scaling, and affordable home ownership in historically disinvested communities of Chicago.
We increase educational achievement of Chicago students by removing barriers that disrupt a quality education.
We reduce gun violence though street outreach, life transformation plans, trauma care, and collaborative place-based peacemaking efforts.
We provide quality, affordable legal counsel and advice for civil matters through local church-based justice centers.
We foster collaboration by coordinating seasonal rhythms of united prayer and collective action among churches and faith-based organizations.

The “Together” in Together Chicago
Since 2017, Together Chicago has worked to reduce gun violence and increase thriving communities by serving as a catalyzing and coordinating force, connecting congregations, nonprofits, businesses, and government partners for practical, life-transforming service across Chicago.
Through our five Focus Areas, we pursue community-reshaping results that no single organization can accomplish alone.
