CIOGC hosted a Community Town Hall with Mayor Brandon Johnson, bringing together Muslim community leaders and residents for an opportunity to engage directly with the Mayor and his administration.

The conversation focused on issues and concerns affecting the Muslim community, including housing, discrimination and hate speech, public transportation, and other community priorities. Community members and organizations, including NIA, ICNA Relief, Masjid Al-Farooq, and many others, also had the opportunity to submit questions and share the issues that matter most to them.

We appreciate Mayor Johnson and his team for making time to hear directly from our community. We look forward to continuing this dialogue and strengthening the relationship between the Muslim community and the City of Chicago.
