Black men in Illinois face a persistent workforce crisis, with Chicago ranking lowest among major U.S. cities in labor force participation. In response, Equity & Transformation (EAT) and Fathers, Families & Healthy Communities (FFHC) conducted in-depth research to understand the barriers Black men and fathers face in securing stable employment. Their findings, to be released in the upcoming report, Breaking the Chains: Reclaiming Wealth, Power, and Dignity for Black Men, outline urgent, actionable solutions—including targeted guaranteed income, job training with wraparound support, fatherhood and mentorship programs, and investment in Black-owned businesses. This initiative aims to drive systemic change, ensuring Black men have access to opportunities that strengthen families and Chicago’s economy. 
In partnership with the Field Foundation.
