Chicago Survivors

Chicago Survivors Crime Victims Services for Families Who Have Lost Loved Ones to Violence in Chicago. Our services are free, voluntary and open to all.
(1)

Chicago Survivors (CS) offers crime victim and support services to surviving family members of Chicago homicide victims. Our services are survivor-shaped, trauma-informed, family-centered and delivered primarily in survivors’ homes. We are uniquely survivor-informed, family-centered, field-based, and victim-rights oriented. Since 2014, we have garnered federal, State and City funding, and are recognized at all these levels for our work. This funding has enabled the organization to hire staff, build the service system, establish working relationships, and train law enforcement, medical examiner and hospital staff to respond to victim families with greater compassion and effectiveness. Services free and open to all include:
• Immediate Crisis Intervention;
• Supportive Counseling & Case Management;
• Child/Youth Supportive Counseling & Intervention Services;
• Community of Survivors Events and Support; and
• Criminal Justice and Victim Advocacy
