About Us
The story of Little CityOUR HISTORY
Established in 1959, Little City was founded by a group of parents who dreamed of a revolutionary environment for their children who “experts” often said should be institutionalized. Today, Little City is a vital, vibrant community offering a comprehensive scope of services to individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
Our founding principles along with a therapeutic community approach, continue to guide our programs and services for children and adults of all ages, enabling Little City to create hope, change lives and challenge the limits placed on individuals with disabilities.
Our nonprofit includes a 56-acre campus in Palatine with a choice of housing, programming and educational options as well as a foster care placement office in Chicago. We recently added the Duffey Family Children’s Village of state-of-the-art group homes for children and doubled our square footage and capacity of its ChildBridge Center for Education.

A Rewarding Career
“I’ve always had a passion for working with people in general. Working here every day gives me an opportunity to do what I am passionate about. Working with people with disabilities and getting to see the smile on their faces and see them do things they may not have been able to do in the past and learn and maintain those skills is what makes it worth coming to work every day.” – Tanya Syperski – Little City Assistant Program Manager
