Let’s build an equitable future for all of us!
Who We Are
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.
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 in those strategies. Our grassroots leaders work on issues including housing justice, mental health justice and healthcare access, police accountability and community safety, and environmental justice.
