Last month, Together Chicago’s Austin Violence Reduction teams joined community partners for the second annual Defenders of the Court basketball tournament.

More than 100 participants came together for a 3-on-3 tournament featuring teams from Community Violence Intervention (CVI) programs across Chicago. The event also offered food, community vendors, and valuable resources for attendees.

We’re proud of our Austin team members who participated and showed up in support. A special thank-you to Carl O'Neal for coaching the Together Chicago team and to all the partners who helped make this gathering possible.

Events like these create opportunities to strengthen relationships, celebrate community, and bring people together around a shared commitment to safer, thriving neighborhoods.

What a meaningful day of learning, connection, and collaboration at this year’s THR!VE Pastor’s Growth Summit! 🙌🏽

Pastors and ministry leaders gathered at historic Quinn Chapel AME Church to strengthen their work alongside Chicago communities and explore what it looks like to lead with wisdom, compassion, and commitment.

From coalition-building and listening to conversations around policy, racial justice, and violence reduction, the day challenged leaders to recognize the resources already present in their communities and put them to work.

We’re proud to have served as a major sponsor of this year’s summit and grateful to everyone who helped make it possible.

When we share resources, build relationships, and work together, collective impact becomes possible.

This past Saturday, our Case Managers hosted a Women's Wellness Workshop for women in the community. 💙

In an intimate gathering of 10 women, participants explored self-care practices and learned practical tools for self-regulation during everyday life and emotionally challenging moments. Each attendee also received community resources, hygiene bags, journals, and other gifts to help build healthy self-care habits.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make this event so meaningful. We look forward to creating more opportunities for connection, healing, and wellness. Stay tuned for the next one! ✨ by @togetherchicago
