Village Launches Skokie Green Business Recognition Program

The Village and the Smart Energy Design Assistance Center (SEDAC) have partnered to create the Skokie Green Business Recognition Program.

Participating businesses will receive:

• A review of their current sustainability practices

• A checklist to further improve their environmental impact, reduce costs, and increase operational efficiency

• A platform to track their sustainable business practices

• Public recognition as a Skokie Green Business

Get involved

The Village is initially seeking 20 small businesses to join the program, including food establishments, retail and office. Visit skokie.org or email sustainability@skokie.org to participate.

The bigger picture

Achieving Skokie’s Sustainability Plan goals requires a community-wide effort. This program signals an expansion of the Village’s focus to include local businesses, schools and other organizations.
