Value proposition

Mercy Home is a privately funded residential home answering the call to help to children and families in need.

Mercy Home for Boys & Girls has helped more than 30,000 neglected, abused, and homeless children over its 130-year history. At the core of our services is our residential program, which provides a safe home, therapy, and educational support to hurting children at our two Chicago campuses. Mercy Home also offers mentoring, AfterCare, and referral services—all in all, helping a total of more than 600 kids and their families each year.

Mercy Home has been voted one of Chicago’s Top 100 Workplaces in the Chicago Tribune poll since 2013. We are always looking for passionate, driven, and eager coworkers to join our team and make a positive difference in our children’s lives. Our organization is 99.7% privately funded, and we are committed to the development of both our kids and coworkers. With the support and resources we provide, our coworkers turn around the lives of needy children while building their own careers as advocates and leaders.
