Shelter

For residents who are looking to have a block party this year, please find the application form here.

We ask that the petitioner return the completed application to our office at least one week prior to your event. 

If you are interested in having a bouncy house at your block party, the Jumping Jack program (https://www.chicago.gov/city/en/depts/dca/provdrs/markets_and_neighborhoodprograms/svcs/svc1.html)  will provide one at no cost to the applicant. Reservations are first come, first serve. 

The Chicago Fire Department can also bring a fire truck to your block party to engage with kids and provide fire safety information! Please call our office at 773-523-4100 or email us at Ward25@cityofchicago.org to make this request at least 2 weeks prior to your block party.
