Description

Illinois is one of the most diverse and representative states in the nation, encompassing communities of every race, class, and background. It is also home to the largest per capita Muslim population in the nation. A snapshot of Illinois' Muslims is a snapshot of America's Muslims, so understanding the needs and assets of this population is key to ensuring Illinois becomes an even more equitable, inclusive state. Launched July 2022, the Illinois Muslims: Needs, Assets, and Opportunities report presents an empirical assessment of the strengths and struggles of the Illinois Muslim community, with a comparison to the Illinois general public.
