Bright Star Community Outreach

BSCO recognizes that violence impacts individuals and communities in a complex and dynamic way, affecting nearly all aspects of life, from physical and mental health to housing, propensity for substance abuse, educational attainment and employment. BSCO’s community development initiatives, particularly in the 3rd and 4th ward of Chicago’s south side, are aimed at facing our largest societal challenges: violence in our communities, poor economic opportunities, inadequate mental health services, homelessness, child safety, and drug abuse. These efforts are designed to strengthen local families and communities, as well as leverage key partnerships with organizations and businesses that share their passion for seeing renewal in Chicago.
