The City of Chicago Department of Family and Support Services (DFSS) invited Chicago leaders, youth-serving stakeholders and young people to the Harold Washington Library Center Winter Garden for the December My CHI. My Future. (MCMF) citywide partners meeting. This meeting provided an opportunity to hear from the MCMF Community Anchor Organizations about their efforts to convene stakeholder networks and develop community plans focused on meeting the needs of youth in their communities. Organizations representing 15 regions across the city are presenting data identified through a community needs assessment and outline strategies to address opportunity gaps for young people. Mayor Johnson invested $14.2 million across the MCMF initiative through the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) as part of Mayor Johnson’s Road to Recovery Plan. Since 2023, the Community Anchor Organizations program has funded 15 delegate agencies to serve as Community Anchors, bringing together community stakeholders dedicated to youth development. The goal of the program is to create strategies that connect young people of all ages to engaging and meaningful out-of-school time programs in each of the 15 MCMF Community Strategy Regions. For more information about services and opportunities offered through DFSS, please visit: www.cityofchicago.org/fss.
