Strong Towns is an organization started by Chuck Marohn, who wrote a book by the same name. This is the local Elgin, IL conversation. Everyone in the community is welcome to attend any of our meetings. There is no club to join or dues to pay. Just people in the community coming together to learn how we can make our city a great place to live and take action in our communities to achieve it together.
Strong Towns Org publishes multiple newsletters, hosts online meetings, posts fun videos, and has tons of training online for free. We highly recommend visiting their website and signing up for their newsletter.
Strong Towns (the books)
Strong Towns (the books)
A new approach will require innovation, organic co-creation of the community, transportation systems that make sense, thriving downtowns, and a commitment to taking a hard look at the math before we make decisions. Right now, few cities have those conversations. Chuck Marohn and Strong Towns are changing that. We have the ability to rebuild our communities and create a broader prosperity. This book is your paradigm shift to get started.
—Michele Martinez, Former City Councilmember, City of Santa Ana , CA, from the foreword to Strong Towns
