What are you looking forward to this fall? Let’s make it a season to remember—together!
Autumn is a time of new beginnings—of learning, gathering, and reconnecting—and there’s no better place to do that than The Community House. This guide is filled with programs and opportunities for all ages: from our signature after-school program, held right in your District 181 school, our fall Senior Resource Expo on page 56 and chances to gather with your community to be a part of something bigger at the Holiday Ball in December. Whether you’re continuing a favorite tradition or trying something new, we’re here to help you feel at home.
As the leaves change, we’re reminded of the beauty in transformation—and the power of community to support it. We continue to expand our impact through our Spark Youth Development Initiative in unincorporated Willowbrook, where we’re offering academic support, and wellness programming to help young people thrive in our after-school program. It’s just one example of how, with your donations, we reach far beyond our walls to strengthen families and build healthier, more connected communities.
This season also brings us together in gratitude. As we look toward the holidays, we reflect on the hundreds of lives touched every week through our counseling services, youth programs, and community partnerships. Your generosity makes that possible. Every registration, every donation, every moment you spend here contributes to something greater—a network of care, growth, and belonging.
Thank you for being part of The Community House family. Wishing you a fall filled with warmth, discovery, and connection.

Each week, babies, toddlers, preschoolers, and the grownups who love them gather for 45 minutes of fun-filled family music time with Tiny Toes Music. Your teacher will lead you and the other families in music activities ranging from lullabies to full-on jam sessions (with child-friendly instruments, of course!). In Music Together’s mixed age classes, everyone participates at their own level: babies vocalize, listen and observe; toddlers play and experiment; preschoolers build confidence as they emerge as classroom leaders. Grownups are happy because everyone can come to class together! You’ll take home the award-winning music used in class, along with an illustrated songbook and other resources. You’ll be supporting your child’s music-learning and overall development all session long as you discover new ways to play with music together. It’s so much fun, you won’t realize how much learning is taking place! Infant siblings under 9 months attend for free and any caregiver (parent, nanny, or grandparent) can participate in this family music experience.

Join us at The Community House and meet Zuzana from Hummingbird Qigong in this beginner to intermediate Tai Chi program to improve your balance, coordination and overall health. Per Harvard Medical School, Tai Chi is often described as “meditation in motion,” but it might as well be called “medication in motion.” There is growing evidence that this mind-body practice has value in treating or preventing many health problems. Tai Chi is a practice that involves a series of slow gentle movements and physical postures, a meditative state of mind, and controlled breathing. It’s a low-impact, slow-motion exercise, that doesn’t put any pressure on the joints. It’s also slowly becoming therapeutic exercise for many chronic health conditions. Session/Classes will not be pro-rated and are non-refundable unless canceled by The Community House.
