Alliance to End Homelessness in Suburban Cook County

The Alliance to End Homelessness in Suburban Cook County is a non-profit organization responsible for planning and coordination of homeless services and housing options for all of Cook County outside of Chicago.

The Alliance organizes its work at the local grassroots level into three Community Based Service Areas (CBSAs) for Homeless Assistance. These CBSAs - serving the north, west, and south areas of suburban Cook County - form a collaborative homeless assistance information, referral, shelter, and service delivery sysem within their local communities. Monthly meetings of the CBSA groups provide a forum to network, plan and share information about each agency's services. The CBSAs have been instrumental in the overall development and implementation of the Continuum of Care stategy for the Alliance. The Alliance holds monthly meetings of the full Board of Directors. Committee meetings are conducted as needed to accomplish tasks and goals of the Strategic Plan.
