43% of those who age out of foster care experience homelessness by the age of 24...multiple times. Hope Center at Pullen (HCP) provides safe and stable housing and helps with education and employment goals.

WGN awarded a $35K grant to HCP for their Transitions Program and our members had the privilege to learn about HCP over a quick 30-minute ZOOM call today!

We heard "My story is not over.....excited to beat the odds... "
