    Growing Chicago’s Communities: How Economic Development is Transforming Chicago’s South and West Sides

    Thursday, November 5, 2020
     
    Decades of disinvestment, population loss and business closures have restricted growth in neighborhoods on Chicago’s South and West Sides.  However, there are many grassroots efforts in place to reverse these trends and bring back economic vitality.  Residents, community-based organizations, business, civic, and elected officials are important pillars of strong neighborhoods and key to their growth.  Our panelists have over 50 years combined experience in Chicago communities, so join the conversation on November 5th and learn about these transformational projects and the exciting teams behind them.
