Our Mission

The mission of the Kedzie Center is to provide accessible, culturally informed, quality mental health care to North River residents through the integration of clinical practice, education and evaluation, and the application of psychological insight to address community concerns, as informed by the community and in collaboration with local residents and partners.

Help improve mental health care in your community.

The Kedzie Center is conducting a comprehensive needs assessment to ensure our programs, outreach, and care continue to meet the needs of those we serve.

We are seeking feedback from residents of the following neighborhoods:

All participants will be entered into a RAFFLE to win a $50 gift card to a local business.

RESPONSIVE, COMPASSIONATE CARE.

The Kedzie Center is one of Chicago’s first community-funded mental health centers, created through the efforts of North River residents, who worked to ensure that all community members would have access to compassionate, quality and culturally-informed mental health care.

We provide individual, family and group therapy, psychiatric consultation, and guidance in identifying and accessing community resources; services are provided in both English and Spanish and are available to children, adolescents and adults. 

We offer services to those living within the boundaries of the North River Expanded Mental Health Services Program.
