Head's up, #Chicago: SNAP rules are changing. You must take action to keep your benefits. These mandatory requirements must be submitted to the Illinois Department of Human Services by February 1 2026. We'll put a link to their site in the comments.

Temperatures in #Chicago are expected to plunge again this weekend. In response, the #Mayfair Presbyterian Church will host a warming center for our unhoused neighbors. To meet this need, folks can drop off donations after 2pm on the 18th. Thanks to @parksforall.bsky.social for their involvement!

We're sharing a few numbers with everyone as 2025 winds down. We're proud of these yet our ambitions for the next year are greater, so consider this an open invitation to people in #Mayfair looking for an active role in their neighborhood. #Chicago families are stronger when we support each other.

Giving incarcerated people a program to help dogs that will help people is mutual aid.

Think twice about throwing away those holiday lights, #Chicago! WasteNot Composting and Reduce Waste Chicago have teamed up to manage holiday light recycling drop centers all across the city. Our #Mayfair neighbors can take their lights to the 39th Ward alderman's office at 4200 W Lawrence Ave.
