TaskForce is a multi-service organization committed to LGBTQ+, youth, and people of color in Chicago offering free programs to the community.

TaskForce offers more than just the Vogue School — it’s a community! These voices reflect what so many already know: TaskForce shows up, creates space, and helps people grow.

We’re working to raise $10,000 before the end of the year to keep this community thriving and accessible.
If TaskForce has ever impacted you, consider giving back today! Visit http://taskforcechicago.org/donate.

This week is the last week TaskForce will be open before our holiday break; we’ll be closed December 20 – January 4!

If you need support, we encourage you to stop by this week for free winter coats and clothing, our food pantry, and community care.

While we are always honored to serve, this pause allows our incredible team—who have shown up for our community all year long—to rest, recharge, and return ready to continue the work.

We look forward to welcoming you back in the new year! 💜

During this busy holiday season, take a moment to slow down with us! TaskForce is hosting a free Spa Day designed to help our community rest, reset, and feel supported. Join us for facials, wellness activities, and a calming space to breathe — open to LGBTQ+ youth and community members on the West Side.

Registration is free but required. Reserve your spot at bit.ly/TF_SpaDay.

This season, we’re honored to share the voices of families like KJ and her daughter, Kanaya — who found community, care, and a sense of belonging at TaskForce.

From the clothing closet to the food pantry to the love and affirmation our youth receive every day, their story is a reminder of why this work matters.

As we close out the year, we’re working to raise $10,000 to keep these doors open and these services free.

If TaskForce has touched you — or if you believe in creating safe, joyful spaces for West Side youth — we invite you to give today at taskforcechicago.org/donate.

This World AIDS Day, we want to honor our past, protect our future, and uplift the tools that keep our community safe. A world without HIV stigma starts here! Visit TaskForce anytime for testing, PrEP, or support — no appointment needed.

You have more power than you think! When you give to TaskForce, you connect LGBTQ+ youth on the West Side to life-changing resources: Vogue School, free fresh produce and pantry staples, gender-affirming clothing and hygiene essentials, stigma-free HIV/STI testing and referrals, mental health support, and peer-led education that helps youth step into their power.

This season, we’re working to raise $10,000 by December 31 to keep these programs strong. Will you make a gift today to remind our youth they never walk alone? Visit taskforcechicago.org/donate today.
