Hello Chicagoland!

Our regular monthly meetings are held online the fourth Wednesday of the month, except for November. In-person quarterly meetings are held the fourth Friday of the month, except for December. Hyperlocal meetings and events are held in person throughout the year (if interested in being an organizer of or attending a meeting in your neighborhood or suburb, email us to find out more).

Meetings are free for EFA members in good standing, and guests of members (or those with a guest membership) are also most welcome—but registration is both required and limited.

We look forward to meeting you!

Sincerely,

Kandy Hopkins, Amy Spungen, and Tamaal Rodgers
EFA Chicagoland Chapter Co-coordinators
