WE ARE SOUTHEAST NEIGHBORS FOR QUANTUM.

WHO WE ARE:

Southeast Neighbors for Quantum is a broad coalition of South Chicago and South Shore business owners, educators, parents, artists, homeowners, changemakers and, most importantly, advocates for our community who are excited for the potential that the Illinois Quantum and Microelectronics Park and Quantum Shore holds for our residents and families.

WHAT WE DO:

Southeast Neighbors for Quantum will do what we do best – advocate and speak up on behalf of our community. We view this historic quantum campus as a driver for investment and growth, and we will not allow this opportunity to pass us by. Through this group, we will ensure that the authentic voices of our community are represented and heard, and that all the IQMP and Quantum Shore have to offer will benefit our children and grandchildren for generations to come.
