Corazón Community Services

Corazón Community Services’ mission is to improve the quality of life for children, youth and families through holistic social services offered in a culturally sensitive environment.

Corazón Community Services (CCS) has been serving the heart of the community of Cicero/Berwyn since 2003, providing life-changing and life-saving services for children, youth, and families. Since Corazón opened its doors, the agency has had a tremendous impact in Cicero and neighboring communities. Corazón has served over 600 individuals every month through direct services, while over 2,000 community members have been impacted via community education/events. Corazón has had a direct impact on the reduction of gang violence, the reduction of teen pregnancy, the increase in education and outreach on HIV and helped launch several community initiatives in collaboration with other community partners.
