UCCA's Illinois Division-

The Illinois Division, often referred to as the "Chicago Division", traces it's roots back to 1949 when it was
established under the name "League of Americans of Ukrainian Decent".  

In 1974 the League was formally incorporated under the umbrella of the Ukrainian Congress Committee of
America.  

Today, the Illinois Division is one of the most active divisions in the USA and the largest contributor to
UCCA's Ukrainian National Information Service (UNIS).
