The Grand Boulevard Federation is a collaborative community based not for profit organization whose mission is to increase the quality of life for children, youth, families and residents of Bronzeville by advocating for, and influencing policies, funding, programs, and strategies that maximize the effectiveness

of the delivery of human and educational services, and by increasing the coordination of and access to these services and resources. The goal of these activities is a reformed system for the delivery of community, health, human and educational services that will improve the lives of children and youth, strengthen families, and result in a spiritually, physically, economically and socially healthy community.

We believe that genuine and effective change in communities occurs when those impacted by the change have significant voice and input in the creation and implementation of programs, policies, and initiatives designed to benefit them. We involve and support residents in participating fully with public and private agencies and organizations in the planning and decision making process about community issues through information sharing, advocacy, policy analysis, and organizings.
