The activities and services of Outreach are based on a philosophy of ministry that includes neighborhood and community-based locations; a concern for the whole person, mind, body and spirit; relationships based on integrity and mutual respect; and a desire to equip people to reach their God-given potential.

Outreach operates resource centers in Wheaton, Warrenville, Carol Stream, West Chicago and Lombard:

Community services include case management, counseling, youth development programs, transitional housing programs, older adult programs, employment training and community development. Services vary by site and are developed in response to local community needs. The activities and services of Outreach are available to all residents in the communities we serve without regard for their income. Some activities and services, because of their specific purpose and goals, are limited by age, gender and capacity.

Outreach’s social enterprises generate support for Outreach’s ministries:
