Our Mission

Chicago Irish Immigrant Support is a 501c3 not-for-profit immigration and social services provider, serving the Irish community of Chicago and the 19 states represented by the Consulate General of Ireland, Chicago.  The center was established in 1998 with an agreement between Francis Cardinal George and the Irish Bishops, who saw the need for pastoral and social services for a new wave of Irish immigrants to Chicago.  Since then the organization has grown to provide a comprehensive array of services to the elderly and a full range of immigration and naturalization services. Our mission is to help immigrants and seniors adjust to life in the U.S. CIIS achieves this through its dual focus to 1) deliver direct immigration and legal services and 2) offer social services and crisis management for elderly citizens in distress. Traditionally, CIIS' clients were Irish. As the immigration landscape in Chicago changes so does CIIS' clientele. We serve a growing number of Latino immigrants as well as those from Haiti, Ecuador, the U.K., Brazil, Turkey, Romania, the Philippines, Mali, South Africa, Israel, Korea, Serbia, Mexico, Canada, Egypt, Bolivia, Peru, India, and China.
