Membership to the Illinois Environmental Council is the biggest way to make an impact and ensure that IEC can continue to safeguard Illinois—its people, its plants and animals, and the natural systems on which all life depends. Since its founding in 1975 by a group of dedicated grassroots environmentalists, IEC has led issue advocacy campaigns by allowing environmental organizations to pool their resources and create a higher profile for environmental issues. IEC currently represents more than 100 environmental and community organizations and over 500 individual members from throughout Illinois.
Membership runs on a calendar year basis and starts at only $50/year! IEC offers a special rate of $20/year for students and for those who feel they cannot make the $50 commitment.
