Accion Chicago works closely with banks, local governments, community organizations, and other individuals throughout the greater Chicago area, from Lake County in the north to Kankakee County in the south. Our goal is to ensure that your clients have access to the financing they need to start their business or sustain their existing business. Accion Chicago lending staff members work one-on-one with your referrals, providing prompt, quality service. In addition, we are always happy to visit your office to meet with potential Accion prospects, conduct workshops and seminars, or to discuss further partnership opportunities.
