Breakthrough urban ministries is a fantastic place. If you need anything food pantry they have it. If you know of someone who is in need of shelter, men or women breakthrough is the place to go. I highly recommend it. They help you with housing, employment, clothes and a hot meal.

If youre ready for help, you can definitely start here.

Great place!!!! Friendly staff!!!good environment to better your life A+++

....staffed by good, loving, CARING people....intent on motivating you in a POSITIVE direction. Alongside, allocation of resources distributed appropriately within the community.

Disrespectful staff and they be fighting with the homeless people who come here for help go to connections for the homeless in Evanston 60201 1458 Chicago Ave its much better and they put the homeless in apartments much faster

Excellent help to get back on track

Great place, they try hard. If you are willing and need a helping hand this place will help you get to where you need to be. God bless this house.

This is a really great place. A dear friend had decided to collect clothes for women in need suitable for both the (then upcoming) holidays and job interviews as part of a Landmark course. She wanted to find just the right shelter so she could help the most people.After talking to several places she found Breakthrough. They said theyd love such a donation and invited her to come down and see what they did there. We were both very impressed with what we saw. They appear to be doing a great job not only in providing shelter to women in need, but in helping those women find a way to help themselves through education and work-training.

I believe this place to be a safe haven for women & men in need. I work for a facility that eventually has to transition the clients out of the program. This facility is one of many that we introduce to the clients as an option for next level care. Few clients have express to me that this place helps them in more ways than one.

All I wanted to do was take a shower 🚿 and leave yet they used a capacity excuse for not allowing me to do soIf I take a shower and leave the capacity would remain the same!! 😡

I volunteered here through my employer Pangea Real Estate with our Pangea Cares initiative. This was my second time here and I enjoyed talking with the residents and serving and preparing a meal for them.

With four buildings, this non-profit focuses intentionally on meeting the needs of the residents in East Garfield park. The services are still available for everyone, as the support centers in the men and women shelters are popular destinations for the homeless. Breakthrough is able to serve all ages from preschoolers in their fulltime child care program, to seniors with a fresh market to supplement grocery bills. Breakthrough partners with Lawndale Christian health Center to provide medical services on-site.

Volunteered there a great place to help serve the community.

Great

They are the best! Their culture of being like Jesus is as close as human may become; they treat their guest with much respect. Its a clear environment. Even the Front line employee live up to Breakthroughs core values and mission statement.

All I can say they were very good to me when I felt down they lyft me up they have a program now dont count them out .

Helped me when I was homeless. Great support staff and lots of motivation.

I have only visited the cafe located in Breakthrough but it was awesome and I thought I should share my experience with the world. Everything on their menu is pretty cheap and the food was fresh!

I recommend this place for all women from ages 17 to 70 that is homeless to come here, they have a great support system and housing leads are excellent. So if anyone knows anyone n need of shelter THIS IS IT!

Love serving at Breakthough! The people there are an inspiration for all of us. Truly God is working through Breakthrough

Cool place to start over AND theyll help if they see youre serious about helping yourself. Like anyone else

A place that really helps those in need. They have a mens center at 402 n St. Luis as well. Provide shelter, assistance with housing applications, and have a day center Mon-Fri 9am to 3pm for showers, laundry, and lunch. All they ask is that you do a chore.

Meeting the needs of the poor in the community and much more. Sharing the Love of God

Nice staff clean building

Beautiful space for men and women who are overcoming hardships in life. The residents are humble and filled with love to share to anyone who comes through the door.

Great place to receive help if you truly need it.

Hey, I would just like to post my recent experience at breakthrough. I went to the pantry to get food after recently having a fire. I needed food to feed my family they told me I got ould not receitfood because I had no ID with a address in their area code. I was hurt and hungry. I spoke with a lady name Valerie, she was in charge, I just want ro thank her for making it possible for my family and I to get food to eat. Had it not been for her my grand kids and I would have been hungry, so again thank you Valerie for hearing me out and making it possible in spite of the rules, the exception was greatly appreciated. Keep up the good work and continue to work with your heart. God will bless you. Thanks again Audrey Geddis.
