I'm happy to share that Chicagoans have a new data tool for learning more about how gov invests in communities. Every moment of the development of this site involved painstaking attention to our residents' experience. This site gives access to info about what gov does for you.
The new first-of-its-kind data transparency website uses interactive maps to view CRP investments in your community, explore different CRP programs, & track progress & impact! To learn more about @chicagosmayor's Chicago Recovery Plan (CRP), visit: chirecoveryplan.com
