​Housing Help
Joining Forces exists because there are not enough resources to support everyone in our community who needs help. When you do need help, however, here is information on who to contact who can tell you what assistance is available.

Basic Necessities
If you need financial assistance, shelter or food, see Connections for the Homeless’s website.

​
Support for Tenants
See the City of Evanston's webpage on Landlord and Tenant Resources.

If you are having a dispute with a landlord or feel you are being discriminated against, you can also contact one of the following:
  • Metropolitan Tenants' Organization, 773-292-4988
  • Open Communities  847-501-5760
  • North Suburban Legal Aid Clinic 847-737-4042


Support for Landlords
See the City of Evanston's webpage on Landlord and Tenant Resources. ​


Housing Counseling

If you need housing counseling to help with purchasing a home or paying your mortgage, contact Open Communities.​  


Affordable Housing
