Pat Crowley House

The Pat Crowley House, a three-story six-flat building located in Rogers Park, was founded in 1983. The house accommodates 12 seniors who need assistance with daily living tasks, four students, and one young family in an intergenerational living situation. Common areas include living rooms, dining rooms, kitchens and bathrooms. A full-time coordinator and her family live in one of the third floor apartments while four students share another apartment. The young people provide assistance to the elderly and cook on the weekends in exchange for room, board, and the opportunity to live in a family-like environment away from home.

The Pat Crowley House was named in honor of the co-founder of the Christian Family Movement and well-known civic leader who died of cancer in 1974 at the age of 62. Pat Crowley's life exemplified the ideals of tolerance and compassion, and provided the inspiration for this intergenerational home. In that spirit, the residents at The Pat Crowley House strive to live as a close-knit family, learning to share and care for one another.
