Urban Systems of Care (USC) is a creative and ever-evolving community based outreach and
support program within the DePaul University Community Mental Health Center. USC is
designed to assist children, adolescents and families who live in the Cabrini Green and
Lathrop Homes communities through services tailored to the individual needs of the family
and community. Each community is served by a separate office staffed with social service
professionals and para-professionals who reside in the community. The USC program seeks to address social and
environmental issues that may ultimately evolve into more serious mental health demands by
providing advocacy, resource identification, linkage and problem resolution to children
and families within the community. There are
no fees for services provided by USC. Only residents of CHA in these 2 communities are
eligible for USC services.
