IIMPACT “A Legacy of Success”

I IMPACT, You IMPACT, WE IMPACT LIVES!!!

To change the lives of young people and their families by supporting, empowering, and advocating for them, providing a place they can call home within a community that embraces its most vulnerable members. Our goal is to ensure every youth in care has the opportunity for a healthy and successful life by fostering resilience, safety, health, and economic security.

Our Story

IIMPACT, NFP, is a heartwarming organization dedicated to the well-being and development of vulnerable young men. Our mission is to provide housing, education, employment and support services that empower Illinois DCFS youth in care, aged 13 to 21. We equip young men with the tools and resources they need to thrive and reach their full potential. We serve as a child welfare agency and a bridge towards permanent independent living.
