The Neighborhood Housing Services of Chicago is a nonprofit, HUD-certified housing and counseling organization founded in 1975 and based in Chicago, Illinois. It supports homeowners and strengthens neighborhoods by expanding access to affordable homeownership, housing stability, and related services. Through its affiliated nonprofit lender, Neighborhood Lending Services, NHS offers affordable loan options to help families buy, repair, or keep a home, along with free homebuyer education, foreclosure prevention workshops, and Fix Your Mortgage events, plus listings of new and rehabbed homes for sale or rent. The organization operates with bilingual staff across multiple neighborhood offices to reach a diverse community. Its work centers on creating opportunities for affordable homes and improving lives within neighborhoods. In 2025, NHS temporarily closed its West Side office to support an innovative redevelopment project, reflecting ongoing community-focused activity in Chicago.
