Illinois has the largest per capita Muslim population in the nation - who are we?

Muslims provide services, create employment and wealth, and contribute to philanthropy. Muslims vote and serve their communities. They also struggle with challenges and needs.

Target, Nordstrom, Schools, Hospitals, Banks, Public Officials – and we want to reach the Muslim consumer and voter, so let’s better understand our diverse Muslim communites!

Why a Report on Illinois Muslims?

WhatsApp+Image+2021-03-24+at+9.23.08+AM (1).jpg

Illinois is home to the largest per capita population of Muslims in America, yet there has never been an evidence-based assessment of this complex community.

Amidst a pandemic that disproportionately affects minority communities, systemic racial inequities, a political climate with increasing hate, and a global refugee crisis that impacts new Americans and American Muslims, there is an urgency to this initiative.
