Invested in a Stronger,
More Inclusive Chicago
When all of Chicago’s neighborhoods thrive, the City works better for everyone. We believe residents and families succeed when they live in strong, supportive, and vibrant communities. Yet many of Chicago's Black and Brown neighborhoods have experienced decades of systemic disinvestment. We’re committed to working with community partners to help change that.
