Our Second Story Houses

The Second Story Foundation houses in Alsip and Orland Hills provide stable, community-based housing for men transitioning from long-term recovery programs into independent living. In 2023, the Foundation responded to a systemic need by securing a home in Alsip, IL, offering four men a fresh start despite financial and rental history barriers.

 

In February 2023, a second home in Orland Hills, IL was established to support three more men on their path to independent living. Thanks to the dedication of Home2Home volunteers and the unwavering support of our community, members like Joey, Michael, and Shane have been welcomed into a home where they can rebuild with dignity. Each resident, with at least one year of sobriety and steady employment, signs a lease and gains access to free case management, financial planning, and counseling.

 

The Second Story Foundation is committed to providing a stable foundation where men can rebuild their lives with dignity, gain independence, and inspire others on the same journey to long-term recovery.
