Roosevelt Square Community Center Construction

Clearing the Way for a Center

One Family Illinois began to clear the way for the future site of the Roosevelt Square Community Center at 13th Street and Blue Island Avenue. Construction plans are launched and the project is expected to take 12 months. Once built, the center will provide much-needed programs and services to children and families in the care of One Family Illinois, as well as to community residents living in nearby neighborhoods.

The Roosevelt Square Community Center

This center, an 11,000 square foot space, will serve the children and families at our Roosevelt Square Village and surrounding communities. Programs will include academic, therapeutic, social, and recreational support; multi-use spaces for community member to connect to public resources and engage in training, activities, and events; as well as a signature culinary kitchen providing food and nutrition education, and jobs-skills training for the hospitality industry. In addition to the over one hundred children and families cared for by One Family Illinois, more than 5,000 people from the surrounding neighborhoods will be served by the center.

Ongoing Updates

Throughout the course of the construction project, visit the One Family Illinois blog to see videos, pictures, and updates on the progress of the building. We look forward to sharing each milestone reached in the development of this important community resource.

Ways to Support the Community Center Project

Through the generous commitment of time, resources, and financial support of many, One Family Illinois is determined to raise the necessary investments to build the Community Center and provide a beacon for the Village residents and surrounding neighborhoods.
