While Kinship PACE of Illinois will be a new entrant into the Illinois health care delivery system, our management team and provider partners bring extraordinary depth and breadth of experience in person-centered primary care, PACE, and Home and Community-Based Services, as well as other areas of care and services focusing on the elderly and disabled.

Our Mission is to provide the elderly with the ability to gracefully age-in-place through custom-tailored care plans and an experience that extends beyond traditional care. To enable the frail, underserved, and multiethnic senior members of our communities to enjoy an improved quality of life and to age at home with dignity. We do this by providing high quality health and social services through an innovative model that provides a range of integrated preventative, acute care, and community based long-term care services to manage the complex medical needs of the frail and elderly.  

Kinship PACE of Illinois, LLC is a subsidiary of CitiPACE Holding Company, LLC and was established for the purpose of providing PACE services to eligible Illinois residents.

Since 2004, Esperanza Health Centers has operated as a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) on Chicago's under-resourced Southwest side, an area of the city shaped largely by its industrial roots and a recent influx of Latin American immigrants. The fragile nature of the social and economic bonds in the area is evident in the way so many health disparities affect its working-poor families. Opening a PACE center on Chicago's Southwest side is a natural extension of our mission to deliver health and hope to our communities, especially given the dearth of bilingual, culturally-informed services for seniors. Because residents here face multiple levels of stigma – based on race, ethnicity, age, economic status, English proficiency, and immigration status – we know it's critical they feel welcomed and respected when they are with us. Beyond delivering high-quality medical care (Esperanza has consistently high-quality rankings among FQHCs across the country), we hire patient-facing staff from the communities we're in so that patients are greeted and treated by people who have walked along the same sidewalks, shopped in the same stores, attended the same schools, and lived on the same blocks as them. Our core values – caring, quality, and family – are tailor-made for PACE.
