Affordable Housing Unlocked in Waukegan

This free educational workshop in collaboration with College of Lake County & Connections for the Homeless invites you to come together to learn, reflect, and take action on one of the most urgent challenges facing our neighbors: housing affordability in Waukegan, IL.

This workshop is designed for everyone, no prior knowledge is needed. It is a space for curiosity, learning, and collective responsibility.

Together, we will explore:

• How housing affordability affects everything in our community — from family stability and education to health and economic opportunity.
• What is driving rising housing costs, including the policies and systems shaping who can afford to live in Waukegan.
• How your voice matters, and where advocacy can make a real difference for families at risk of being displaced.
