NOTICE ON COVID-19
As the coronavirus pandemic spreads quickly around the globe, there are increasing concerns about the challenges faced by the vulnerable people in our community.
Our mission is to help those in need. We are working closely with our partner organizations to fund additional food and other assistance.
In compliance with the CDC’s guidelines on COVID-19, some of the programs have changed the ways they serve. You can find these updates on our website; however, we recommend that you call before you go.
Caseworker Services are temporarily stopped at this time. For help applying for medical assistance or SNAP (food stamps), call 1-800-843-6154 or apply online at https://ABE.Illinois.gov.
If you or someone you know is in need of food assistance in our community, please email hpkinterfaithcouncil@gmail.com. Click HERE if you look for more available resources.
Meanwhile, we encourage our members to pray for the frontline healthcare workers and those who are affected by COVID-19. We are in this together, we will get through it together.
