Promoting justice and compassion on Chicago’s northwest side!

Hello, neighbor!

Friendship Community Place is a neighborhood hub located in the heart of the Jefferson Park Neighborhood providing community space and resources to the NWSide. We were founded by Friendship Presbyterian Church and work in collaboration and solidarity with our neighbors experiencing housing and food insecurity, physical disabilities or mental illness, as well as veterans, LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC (black, indigenous, and people of color) community members.
