Interfaith Open Communities (IOC) works with people of all faiths to promote affordable housing and welcoming communities throughout the Chicago metropolitan area.

IOC works through local community Clusters to address the housing needs of our region. Local Clusters engage in education, local projects and advocacy in order to foster healthy communities that welcome and reflect the economic, religious and racial diversity of metropolitan Chicago.

IOC is sponsored by Protestants for the Common Good; the Archdiocese of Chicago’s Office for Peace and Justice; Jewish Council on Urban Affairs; and the Council of Islamic Organizations of Greater Chicago.
