Chicago 200, a three-day leadership experience for people ages 18 to 24 years old, is accepting applications through March 15th. The program gives young adults an opportunity to participate in an initiative guided by advisors from the city’s nonprofit, civic and corporate sectors, and it aims to bring together diverse people and voices. Applications are being accepted from young adults who are in or out of school and the workforce, and represent all abilities and identities. Produced by Common Purpose, brought by many Chicago foundations – Chicago 200 will convene young people from across the metropolitan area to brainstorm, test and refine their visions for the city in response to the program’s big question: “What will we make our city known for by its 200th birthday?” The 100 selected participants will explore key issues, hold difficult conversations and collaborate around future solutions as part of their leadership journey. People who live in metropolitan Chicago and are between the ages of 18-24 can apply on the Chicago 200 website, TheChicago200.org. There is no cost to apply and the application deadline is March 15, 2019.
