All migrants housed in two locations in Oak Park will be required to move out by Jan. 31, village officials disclosed Wednesday.

       The approximately 160 people at The Carleton of Oak Park hotel and the West Cook YMCA are to be notified of the eviction date this week. They will be asked to work with a case manager or village staff to find new shelter and possibly move them to another city or state if they have stable housing there, according to a memo from the village Emergency Operations Center.

       For anyone who can’t find shelter, the village will help relocate them to the Chicago shelter program, the memo states. Migrants who arrived in the U.S. before July 31, 2023, may be eligible for temporary protected status. More information for asylum-seekers is provided on the village website.
