About
The Ukrainian Congress Committee of America – Illinois Division, often referred to as UCCA Illinois or the Chicago Division, is a Ukrainian-American civic and advocacy organization representing the interests of the Ukrainian community in Illinois. Its roots date back to 1949, and in 1974 it formally became part of the Ukrainian Congress Committee of America. Today, it is one of UCCA’s most active divisions in the United States.
The organization supports cultural, educational, humanitarian, and civic initiatives that preserve Ukrainian-American heritage while strengthening the role of the Ukrainian community in American public life. Its work includes government relations, public advocacy, educational outreach, community coordination, cultural commemorations, rallies, forums, and support for Ukraine.
Through engagement with elected officials, public institutions, Ukrainian-American organizations, and local communities, UCCA Illinois advocates for an independent and democratic Ukraine, raises awareness of Ukrainian issues, and helps consolidate organized Ukrainian life in the United States.
