Support the Freedom of the Press – The Fight Goes On

Lincoln Park Presbyterian Church

Chicago, IL, United States

Lincoln Park Presbyterian Church’s advocacy is essential to the city, addressing key issues such as the lack of affordable housing, the devastating impact of gun violence, the rise in anti-Black hatred and violence, environmental neglect, police accountability, and the challenges and opportunities posed by the influx of migrants. Their independence from city funding allows them to speak truth to power, particularly when the city is complicit in injustice. By partnering with various organizations and faith communities—especially on the south and west sides—they offer a valuable north side perspective that broadens the scope of collaborative efforts.
