The Des Plaines Community Resource Directory has been prepared as a community service through the efforts of the City of Des Plaines Human Services. It is designed to offer information concerning a variety of services and activities available to Des Plaines residents. Our goal is to link you with the community agencies that are best equipped to meet your needs or answer your concerns. We have attempted to provide you with accurate up-to-date information. Due to occasional changes within individual organizations, it may be advisable to contact the specific agency/organization directly for the most recent available details.

If you have any questions or need further assistance, please feel free to contact our office in person at 1420 Miner Street, by phone at 847-391-5480, or via email at adanek@desplaines.org.
