Today marks the beginning of National Hunger & Homelessness Awareness Week ๐Ÿ ๐Ÿด

WestCare Illinois is joining the movement to end hunger and homelessness because we believe that everyone deserves a roof over their head and to never have to worry about where their next meal will come from.

Join the movement too by finding a way this week to help those in need: volunteer at your local shelter, donate a meal, or so much more. Learn more at hhweek.org

Uplifting the Human Spirit

WHO WE ARE The WestCare Foundation ~ Uplifting the Human Spirit Uplifting the human spirit is a lofty statement for any organization to promote as their objective, especially given the challenging world we live in today. Quality health and human services for individuals, families, and communities in need are a priceless resource. With over four decades of experience, WestCare has the necessary expertise to be that resource to the communities we serve. WestCare, a family of tax-exempt nonprofit organizations, provides a wide spectrum of health and human services in both residential and outpatient environments. Our services include substance abuse and addiction treatment, homeless and runaway shelters, domestic violence treatment and prevention, and mental health programs. These services are available to adults, children, adolescents, and families; we specialize in helping people traditionally considered difficult to treat, such as those who are indigent, have multiple disorders, or are involved with the criminal justice system. Much of our growth has resulted from partnering with like-minded, community-oriented treatment programs that focus on providing the highest quality services. All of these partnerships are to the mutual benefit of the organizations involved and have enabled the partners to sustain and enhance the provision of treatment services for those who need such help. A brief historical overview shows how this strategy has further strengthened and broadened the treatment continuum WestCare provides in its many regions.

WestCare came to Illinois in 2006 as the substance abuse treatment provider at Sheridan Correctional Center in Sheridan, Illinois. Since that time, WestCare Illinois has expanded its footprint to include several programs in the City of Chicago and throughout the state. Currently, WestCare Illinois offers in-custody services, re-entry programming, youth services and outpatient counseling, ranging from an intensive program and individual therapy to a minimal aftercare program with one group session per week.
