About us
Since 1972, Safer Foundation’s mission has focused on supporting, through a full spectrum of services, the efforts of people with criminal records to become employed, law-abiding members of the community and as a result, reduce recidivism. Safer provides services throughout the state of Illinois and in Iowa. Not only do we get our clients ready for the workplace, Safer also works with employers to place clients in jobs that will help them become self-sufficient. As an intermediary between employer and employee, we offer a significant incentive to hire from our pool of candidates. When you hire from Safer Foundation, you get exactly what you need in an employee, with the knowledge that we continuously work to ensure both parties are completely satisfied with the working relationship. And we solve your staffing needs with little or no cost, and with a cast pool of candidates, we can provide your business with one or 100 employees quickly and easily.

Last month, we proudly hosted a special event at our 5517 Southside office, bringing our community together for a day of hope and support. From sharing Safer Foundation’s reentry services to providing free groceries with our amazing partner, Fresh Foods Market, it was truly a team effort. A big thank you to all our vendors—Walgreens, Greater West Town Community Development Project, Associated Bank, Oak St. Health, and Community Health Network—as well as our fantastic DJ and cook who kept everyone fed and energized. And of course, a huge THANK YOU to our incredible team and everyone who came out to make the day unforgettable. This is what community looks like! 💙 #SecondChances #CommunitySupport #ReentryServices #WeCare
