About This Cause

Metropolitan Family Services offers a holistic approach to service. Education programs provide young people and parents for success, from the early years throughout school, and all the way to college. Economic Stability programs provide families with the tools to find and maintain employment, achieve financial literacy, and build family income. Metropolitan's Emotional Wellness programs encourage healthy and productive lives through counseling and mental health services, violence prevention and intervention and older adult services. Empowerment programs help families stand up and be heard by providing legal advocacy services to the Chicago area's most vulnerable citizens. Metropolitan Family Services inspires, invests in families and communities, creates hope, innovates and adapts, builds community and makes a life-changing difference for those most at risk.
