During these past three months, we have seen stakeholders throughout the Chicago Continuum of Care (CoC) come together in new ways to collaborate, create solutions, and support each other during unprecedented times. At All Chicago, we have kept our pulse on the CoC’s needs, national best practices, and guidance for moving forward with a framework focused on equitably preventing and ending homelessness.

Now we want to hear from you about how to advance our homeless response system while leveraging the momentum and collaboration you all created. We need you to share your concerns, your solutions, and your ideas so we can collectively identify or reaffirm our priorities as a CoC. 

All Chicago is soliciting feedback on behalf of the CoC to assess the way we do work under the CoC Implementation Structure (formerly known as the Action Agenda). Through a survey and a series of focus groups, we hope to identify opportunities for streamlining our work processes, to establish priority areas, and to generate solutions to the emerging issues in our workgroups and committees.

We encourage every stakeholder in the CoC to complete this survey by Friday, July 24, 2020. 

Additionally, we will be holding virtual focus groups with key stakeholders over the next month. To ensure we capture the voices of as many people as possible, we are also holding community-wide focus group sessions. These sessions have limited seats, but All Chicago will hold additional sessions if these fill up.

This focus group takes place Thursday, July 23, 3:00-4:00: To register, click here.
