Center for Economic Progress

The Center for Economic Progress helps hard-working, low-income families move from financial uncertainty to financial security.

Local in service but national in voice, we achieve our mission in three ways: 1. We provide trusted tax and financial counseling, giving Illinois families the tools to make sound choices. 2. We lead a national coalition of organizations that promote economic progress for low-wage workers and their families. 3. We advance policies and practices to create a financial system that works for all.
