Mission Statement
The mission of the Chicago Hyde Park Village is to create a community of "neighbors helping neighbors" on the south side of Chicago by providing Opportunities for social engagement, educational programs, and facilitating volunteer support services and referrals to foster vibrant healthy aging.
Description
Chicago Hyde Park Village aims to preserve the character and identity of the neighborhood its residents cherish while helping members to remain involved and to avoid problems that can affect us all as we age-fraud, loneliness, transportation, access to help and information, to name just a few. CPHV is collaborating with other local organizations to facilitate a community of communities, to promote neighbors being neighbors, and to encourage residents of all ages to remain active and engaged.
Our initial focus is in Hyde Park and surrounding neighborhoods, but we have set no boundaries and envision eventually serving other areas on Chicago's South Side.
