Illinois Chapters
District Meeting
The primary focus of the Great Lakes Region in its initial years has been in the Chicago area. In an effort to increase the awareness of and interest in design-build and facilitate member involvement in the other areas of our four-state region, a primary goal is the development of district chapters.
