ONE Northside is a mixed-income, multi-ethnic, intergenerational organization that unites our diverse communities in Rogers Park, Edgewater, Uptown, Ravenswood, North Center, Lake View, and Lincoln Park. We build collective power to eliminate injustice through bold and innovative community organizing. We accomplish this through developing grassroots leaders and acting together to effect change.
ONE Northside is working with schools, churches, service agencies, community groups, and dozens of other allies and partners across the North Side to help coordinate Rapid Response efforts supporting vulnerable members of our community who may be targeted by enhanced federal enforcement in our neighborhoods. If you're ready to get involved, learn more here.
Find Know Your Rights and Family Emergency Plan information here for vulnerable community members. Available in English, Spanish, Urdu, Hindi, simplified Mandarin, Viet and Dari.
Join us to build a diverse, united North Side of Chicago acting powerfully for our shared values of racial, social, and economic justice in communities where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
What We Do
We believe that those affected by the issues in the community are best equipped to come together and develop solutions, create action strategies, then lead those strategies. Our grassroots leaders work on issues including housing justice, budgets and democracy, police accountability and community safety, and environmental justice.
We fought hard with our coalition partners this budget season and made big wins in the budget to protect our communities! We also know where we need to fight more next year.
This week ONE Northside Members voted to endorse Mayor Johnson's Protecting Chicago Budget Proposal. Our city is facing a crisis, and this budget can fund our programs and protect our communities.
