About Us
Homemakers, realtors, lawyers, engineers, teachers, retirees; business owners, employees, government workers; young, old, single, married - the Downers Grove Community Advocates represent YOU.
The DGCA is a diverse and experienced group of residents who see the awesome opportunities before our great community. We are here to provide a positive, constructive, and independent voice in the discussions that will shape our community's future. Because we are a politically diverse group of people with many years of community service in government, the library, the schools, and other civic groups, we believe we are uniquely capable of helping to meet this need.
We're not "Watching" or allying our selves to "Oppose" this or that (as too often groups are formed to do) rather, our goals are to promote the best attributes of our village and to explore and inform citizens about those issues facing our community that will have an impact for many years to come.
Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians or Independents - we've got it covered. First and foremost we're caring and concerned Downers Grove residents who choose to be involved in shaping the future of our community.
Change comes: you either get run over by it or you try to shape it. We choose the latter.
Did you ever wonder; are the only people who know how to run the country busy driving cabs and cutting hair?
