Chicago COVID-19 Response

Public Health | 2020-now

How has COVID-19 impacted communities in Chicago?

Like many cities across the U.S., COVID-19 has devastated many low-income and marginalized communities in Chicago, many of whom lack access to healthcare and essential resources to protect themselves from the virus.

How did CORE help provide COVID-19 relief in Chicago?

Beginning in 2020, CORE provided free COVID-19 relief directly to the hardest-hit and most vulnerable communities in Chicago. Alongside our partners, we operated mobile COVID-19 vaccine and testing sites across the city to increase availability to communities most impacted by the pandemic.
