Sarah's Circle

July is #DisabilityPrideMonth, commemorating the passing of the landmark Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in July 1990. It is an opportunity to celebrate and honor the experiences, identities, contributions, and cultures of people with disabilities! Women with disabilities face higher rates of homelessness, largely due to discrimination and lack of access to affordable and accessible housing. At Sarah's Circle, over 30% of our clients live with a physical disability. We take pride in operating accessible facilities and housing and offering resources for women with disabilities to navigate support services. Sarah's Circle is committed to advocating for a more accessible, inclusive, and diverse world where every woman is empowered and has the tools she needs to lead a meaningful life. Join us in celebrating Disability Pride Month and supporting our mission! 💙

Happy Independence Day from Sarah's Circle! Our Daytime Support Center and administrative, Rapid Rehousing, and Permanent Supportive Housing offices will be closed today in observance of the holiday.

The Women Of Cisco Upper Midwest Chapter had a fulfilling day partnering with Sarah's Circle to pack lunches for our giveback event at the Chicago Office. 💫 Sarah's Circle offers a wide range of services for women, such as housing, life necessities, and supportive services, empowering them to permanently end their homelessness. Thank you to everyone who came out and donated their time! Always grateful to work for an organization that encourages giving back to our local community. #WeAreCisco #WomenOfCisco
