I want to create sleeping quarters for Chicago’s forgotten beloved ones ⏤ somewhere safe and comfortable, a community within a community. I want to help my neighborhood friends get off the street, provide them temporary residential solutions they can call home, and place them in job-readiness programs, while they await their very own apartment to become available.
