Warming House is Back!

In wake of pandemic challenges, Warming House and Haven unite to continue service to local youth!


With diminished participation during the pandemic, and a difficulty to replicate a youth center online, The Warming House seemed destined to be an abandoned building next to Howard Park in Wilmette.


The doors closed in 2020, and with the some funding sources in jeopardy, the Warming House joined forces with Haven Youth and Family Services in the youth center. The doors reopened as Haven’s Warming House in July of 2023.
