The Chicago Consortium on Longevity (CCL) aims to uplift and optimize the experience of growing older in the greater Chicagoland area and beyond.

It is our hope that older adults from diverse racial/ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds in the greater Chicagoland area will benefit from our Consortium. We are mindful of the unique challenges facing aging individuals of color and will make targeted efforts to recruit experts, agencies, and constituencies from traditionally underserved neighborhoods and areas to ensure that the services and resources are appropriate for and representative of all aging individuals.
