Grant Professionals in the Chicago area met on May 19, 2006 to sign a charter, forming the Chicago Chapter of the American Association of Grant Professionals. This historic event brought grant professionals together to make the various organizations in Illinois that depend on grant funding better able to meet the needs of the people they serve. Since 2006, the Chicago-Area Chapter has held several workshops and networking sessions. For additional information, please contact us at info@aagpil.org.
