Social Action at Old St. Pat's

North Lawndale Kinship Initiative

Picture
​The North Lawndale Kinship Initiative is a community development partnership between people in the North Lawndale neighborhood of Chicago’s West Side and Old St. Patrick’s Catholic Church. Despite the racial, religious, and political division we often experience in society today, our diverse collaboration aims to set a different course.  We are a movement of engaged churches, schools, community organizations, government officials, businesses and individual leaders in North Lawndale and at Old St. Pat’s that choose to work together to address the pressing issues of our city and times.


​​Kinship Mission
Through the Kinship Initiative, people of North Lawndale and Old St. Patrick’s Church walk alongside one another in friendship, sharing our talents and resources to secure justice, opportunity and the transformation of our communities.

The Dr. Dennis Deer Restorative Justice Center
​Grand Opening Was a Huge Success!

Hundreds gathered in picture perfect whether to celebrate the Lawndale Christian Legal Center's ongoing commitment to helping young people become whole adults, and the community thriving as a result. See some of the great press the center received HERE.

Many thanks to those of you who attended on Sunday, April 27, 2025. Thanks also to those who were supportive in days leading up to the event, (i.e., visiting the center, assisting with cleanup and setup, event planning, monetary donations, etc.). Stay tuned for the official announcement of Kinship-related Old St. Pat's volunteer opportunities at the Deer Center starting soon. The Old St. Pat's community looks forward to continuing our walk with the Deer Center residents and staff, and we hope you'll join us.
