      Our mission is to ensure every child in Chicago has the essentials they need to thrive in the first five years of life. We do this by collecting new and gently used baby items from those with “extras” to spare and distributing them to families living in poverty through a sustainable network of volunteers, community stakeholders, and social service agencies.

    • Nights of Safety Program Coordinator

      ALIVE (Alternatives to Living in Violent Environments) was founded in 1983 through the shared vision of two women with graduate degrees from Washington University who worked as advocates for battered women. Aware of the critical need for safe shelter for women and children victimized by domestic violence in St. Louis, they decided to fill the existing void in services. ALIVE began humbly in two rooms donated by a local church. Two volunteer co-directors conducted ALIVE’s initial efforts, and six safe-house providers shared their homes with battered women and their children when safe shelters were unavailable. In addition to this program offering temporary sanctuary, ALIVE hosted four weekly support groups. ALIVE was incorporated in 1985 and over the years has expanded into a full-service domestic violence prevention agency. Our Nights of Safety program remains true to our founders'​ original concept of providing temporary emergency sanctuary when all domestic violence shelter beds are full. ALIVE's additional services include:. a 24-hour crisis line emergency transportation individual and group adult counseling a children's treatment program court advocacy community education and outreach ALIVE's paid staff has grown from one half-time person to ten full-time and three part-time employees. The operational volunteer corps that started with eight women now numbers 50 strong. Show less
