Linking People, Building Places

Community is Chicago’s greatest strength

At Strong Towns Chicago, we’ve built community by connecting neighbors around practical, bottom-up action—hosting local meetups and workshops, sharing stories and successes, and doing the real work to effect change—all aimed at creating safer streets, stronger neighborhoods, and a more financially resilient city. In our movement, residents learn together, experiment together, and support each other in taking small, meaningful steps to make Chicago thrive for the long haul. We’d love to have YOU join us!
