Policy caucuses are a great way to help enact real change at the local and state level.Â
There is no place like home! This Caucus addresses housing across many levels of government, with a focus on state and local policy. We have multiple teams that work on projects ranging from research to lobbying, and partner with entities from nonprofits to state representatives. Whichever team you join, you're sure to have a great time, bond with your fellow members, and do meaningful work in housing policy and advocacy.

They have also hosted events with transit professionals and published transit editorials on the Maroon.
Time to hit the books! This caucus focuses on education policy across Cook County and the state overall. From helping State Representative Mussman with research on school board training to researching the current CPS budget crisis, this caucus does everything and anything in education!
In an administration that has treated immigrants in a dehumanizing and brutal manner, this caucus is necessary more than ever. With its second year underway, this caucus will focus on making local impacts for immigrants and helping elected officials combat the current administration's policies.
