Since 1985, the chamber has been the voice of five counties in Illinois and Indiana and more than 85 communities in the Chicago Southland area. The Chicago Southland Chamber of Commerce provides regional leadership, advocacy, strategic alliances and programs that unite and grow its members and the business community. Our goal as a chamber is to become the primary regional organization uniting businesses and communities, fostering an environment where:

• Businesses of all sizes and diversities are attracted and thrive.
• Partnerships and alliances are forged with members and organizations to collaborate on regional development and community enhancement.
• Public policy and advocacy efforts promote the strength and vitality of businesses in the Southland area.
