We need your help more than ever.

Donations made to IWS will support vital responses to the COVID-19 pandemic such as seeing sick patients in the clinic, testing equipment, reduction in service delivery, telehealth for counseling patients, and other efforts. IWS is committed to doing everything possible to ensure the health and safety of our patients and staff. We can only achieve this goal with your help. Thank you!

For the past 8 years, Keira and her family, who live in the neighborhood, have come to the Angel Harvey Family Health Center for medical, dental, vision and family services. She sees our pediatrician, dentist, and optometrist for check-ups and primary care, and also uses our behavioral health services. Her therapist helps her cope with anxiety and teaches her problem-solving skills for succeeding at home and school, while our social skills group shows her how to interact with peers, bolsters her self-esteem and gives her a place to shine. Keira and her family know that IWS is a safe place to receive quality care and she feels at home with staff and practitioners. For this reason, she always arrives with a smile and greets everyone she sees, from receptionists to doctors.

With your help, we can provide quality healthcare to local families in need, expands and innovates to offer comprehensive, wraparound services, and makes it easier for struggling families to get the care that they need.

The nurse who shows the child how to use their inhaler keeps them healthy and happy; the optometrist who provides an eye exam and glasses can help turn C/D grades into As/Bs; the therapist and child development specialists provide support and skills to improve behavior; the dentist makes the tooth aches that keep a child home from school go away. This is why it is so important that we provide children with the preventive services that will help them build a foundation for a productive and healthy life.

Keira is one of the thousands of children in our area who is at risk. Her family trusts the Angel Harvey Family Health Center to provide healthcare that is accessible, high-quality and serves their unique needs so that she and her siblings can get the best start in life.

For more than a century, IWS has pioneered innovative medical and behavioral health practices in serving Chicago’s most vulnerable families. You are part of this vital legacy.
