About Mercy Home Walsh Girls Campus
The Walsh Girls Campus, established in 1987, is a peaceful haven in a quiet South Side Chicago neighborhood, specifically for young women ages 11-24. This campus near the intersection of W 116th Street and S Longwood Drive provides a safe and nurturing environment for girls who have experienced hardships like insecure living situations or poverty. It offers 24/7 care, with all basic needs—shelter, food, and clothing—provided in a consistent and stable setting. The campus includes the historic Walgreen family mansion, which now houses residential programs.
The campus prioritizes comprehensive support and therapeutic healing. It provides extensive therapeutic support, including individual and group therapy, along with specialized healing programs such as grief groups, music therapy, and therapeutic yoga, all designed to foster emotional well-being and personal growth. For overall development, the campus offers a chapel for spiritual reflection.
Residential programs like the Walgreen Residence provide structured daily routines, with shared meals in the dining room and group therapy in the living room. The Bernardin Residence serves young women ages 18 to 21 in a pre-independent living arrangement that encourages personal responsibility and life skills. Throughout the campus, tranquil gardens invite connection with nature and offer hands-on learning about growing produce, further supporting the residents’ development.
