What I love most about working for CHIL is that I am able to speak with so many youth about their experiences. Every person here has a different story, and I'm fortunate enough to listen to each and every one

Our Definition of Diversity:
Understanding that diversity means many different things to many different people, Covenant House Illinois defines it broadly to be inclusive of many different elements of human groups, but to focus particularly on: Racial and ethnic groups, Gender Identity and Expression, Sexual Orientation (LGBTQ+ populations), and People with Disabilities.
