Since 1958 the Ravenswood Community Council has been hard at work to make Ravenswood a better place to live and do business. Originally founded to fight crime and blight, RCC was one of the first urban conservation commissions in Chicago.

We are focusing our efforts on programs and partnerships that are designed to improve life for our entire community. We do this by advocating on important local issues like property tax reform, mass transit, crime prevention, social service and business retention.
