Erie House & New Arrivals from Texas
Erie Neighborhood House has served immigrants for over 150 years. Since August 31 2022 the City of Chicago has continued to welcome hundreds of migrants bused from Texas to Chicago. Our city is striving to greet them with dignity and respect, and the city government, in collaboration with local, state, federal, and community partners, including Erie House’s very own staff, continues to ensure their basic needs are met. Erie House is looking to support the new arrivals in any way we can. This includes providing housing support twice a week and providing basic hygiene products and NEW clothing. Here are ways you can provide support:
