Our Vision: Hope, healing and resiliency for children.

Our Mission: Lawrence Hall is a community based service

agency embracing at-risk youth and their families by instilling resilience,

healing and changing lives for good.

For more than 150 years, Lawrence Hall has been delivering high quality care to abused and neglected youth and their families throughout

the Chicago metropolitan area. The agency has not only sustained itself for the duration, but it has redefined how our traumatized youth are

educated and treated.

Specialized Services

Older Adolescent Program Lawrence Hall’s Older Adolescent Program provides young adults with comprehensive services designed to meet their individual needs as they prepare to emancipate from the child welfare system. Our two-level program serves youth between the ages of 17 and 21 to help them successfully com-plete high school and gain work experience while providing them with a support system for long-term stability.

Residential Treatment Program

Therapeutic Day School

Project Work Project Work is an integral part of Lawrence Hall’s programming and includes: MY TIME, TryMe’s, Right Turn, After School Matters, and One Summer Chicago PLUS. Through these programs, Lawrence Hall helps youth develop skills and provide them with the tools needed to obtain and maintain employment.

Foster Care Lawrence Hall’s Foster Care Program annually provides safe, nurturing homes for over 200 youth (birth through 21 years of age) who have been removed from their birth families due to abuse, neglect, substance dependency, or abandonment. We take great care in selecting and training foster parents who are able to provide the special care and sense of permanency our traumatized youth need.

Lawrence Hall’s fully-accredited Therapeutic Day School provides specialized education to meet the needs of students who face extreme difficulty learning in a traditional classroom setting; many are faced with emotional and behavioral disorders as well as learning disabilities that make conventional learning methods unviable.

The Child and Family Treatment Center is Lawrence Hall’s most acute level of care and a valued placement option when at-risk youth, with complex trauma, need residential treatment to help them stabilize. Youth at the Center learn how to improve social skills, develop coping mechanisms, form healthy relationships, and maintain a healthy lifestyle.

Lawrence Hall Raises $224,000 at Fall Fete for At-Risk Youth and Families

Chicago’s oldest social services agency celebrates 2016 triumphs, sets new live auction record with art piece from internationally acclaimed artist Marketa Sivek

CHICAGO, IL – Over 340 guests attended Lawrence Hall's Fall Fête 2016 held on Saturday, September 24th at the Zhou B Art Center, raising $224,000 through the night’s sponsorships and events to benefit Lawrence Hall’s programs.

“We are thrilled at the generous response from our broad community of supporters. We look forward to investing in additional community-based programming on behalf of our youth,” said Kara Teeple, CEO, Lawrence Hall.

The event was co-chaired by Rita Wilkinson and Liz Nicholson and honored special guest - Mary B. Galvin and her family. Gala guests were wowed by dessert and a take home treat fully cooked by youth from Lawrence Hall's TryMe's culinary arts program and a powerful and rousing speech by Lawrence Hall alumni Harley Stone.

“Lawrence Hall was my blessing and if I could do it all over again I would in a heartbeat because Lawrence Hall saved my life! And I say to all the current youth, take full advantage of everything Lawrence Hall has to offer you and you will see the light at the end of the tunnel and find success.” - Harley Stone, Lawrence Hall Alumni

Additionally, internationally acclaimed artist Marketa Sivek's piece, 'Sweet Home/Tonight' fetched crucial funds during a spirited live auction and set a new Lawrence Hall auction record. Sivek’s work has been featured on NBC’s Chicago PD and found its way into the private collections of Oprah Winfrey, Tom Hamilton of Aerosmith and more.

“Everyone deserves a real home – someplace that represents safety and security. The work that Lawrence Hall accomplishes on behalf of our city’s youth and their families is remarkable,” said Sivek. “There was no real sense of security in my home country. I believe my work speaks to this greater mission and I am proud to support Lawrence Hall’s efforts to heal the community and change people’s lives for the better."

Sivek was not only extremely touched that her work made such an impression on all of the guests at Fall Fete but that she was able to see that night her artwork impact the youth and families served by Lawrence Hall.
