The Chicago PR Project

The Chicago PR Project Our goal is to promote dignity, health,
and respect! Our approach is led with compassion, acceptance and love for the people we serve.

The Puerto Rico Project is a street outreach harm reduction organization dedicated to meeting people’s basic needs by restoring dignity and improving the quality of life for individuals affected by stigma and harm. We attain this by implementing resources and practical strategies aimed at reducing negative consequences for people impacted by social inequalities.

At PRP, we don’t celebrate the 4th of July. We serve through it.
There’s no freedom when our people are unhoused, overpoliced, and underfed.
There’s no independence when harm reduction is criminalized, and basic dignity is denied.

So we showed up—like we always do.
Mobile showers. Hot meals. Harm reduction supplies. Community care.
Because liberation isn’t a holiday. It’s daily work.
And we are part of the resistance.

Thanks to an incredible partnership with Bethel Church, we’re now offering showers, harm reduction supplies, and community care—right alongside their amazing team who’s serving up hot meals with love.

This is what mutual aid looks like: neighbors helping neighbors, dignity restored, and no one left behind.

📍West Side love.
🍽️ Food & showers.
🧼 Harm reduction in action.

Honored to have presented on Harm Reduction Theory & Practice for Social Workers at the NASW Conference in Chicago. I had the privilege of presenting alongside the incredible Dr. Sorrell and Chelsea Laliberte.

Big love to my sister Rana for showing up and showing out, and a huge thank you to Joey for holding it down behind the scenes and keeping everything organized!

We also had the opportunity to set up a mock overdose prevention site and educate amazing social workers on why this is such a vital resource for our communities. The response was unanimous:
“So what’s the hold up? This is common sense!” 💯 🙌🏽🙌🏽 Yes! Solidarity!!

We officially expanded to Maywood ya’ll thanks to . We teamed up with one of our community partners who have been covering this area for a while. Our first day in Maywood was last Friday from 11-2. We are still working on our full schedule. Stay tuned…

We have been so busy she unable to keep up with our social media. Here is a post from our first day of the season a few weeks back… ⸻

Holy crap, y’all!! 😅

Today was our first day of the season with the mobile shower unit—and it came with some technical difficulties! Sis and I got everything set up and were almost ready to roll when… the water didn’t turn on. 😩

Turns out, a few valves needed adjusting, the pump sensor kept shutting off every 2 minutes, and there was a loose pipe on the opposite side of the pump. We made a huge mess in the water storage area—but we figured it out!! 🙌🏽

We officially kicked things off today in West Humboldt Park on this beautiful day. Our next stop will be Madison Ave—stay tuned!

Enjoy some pics of our first day and my classic “what the helly?!” face 😆❤️

Friday night outreach consisted of white rice and steak in sauce. Catered by thank you Mari for your patience with us as we try our best to manuever one of the busiest days of our week. We served so many people and each time we go out, there are more people. I hope our dream comes true of having a brick and mortar where we can cook all day for our community and of course do so much more. We ran out of Narcan before making it to our next community so we hit up CRA for more. Thanks for looking out for us!
