- **Event Name**: Let’s Talk Data Centers: Our Water, Our Power, Our Communities
- **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 23 Mar, 2026 at 06:00 pm – Mon, 23 Mar, 2026 at 07:30 pm (-05:00)
- **Event Description**: Data centers are expanding rapidly across Illinois, bringing new demands for electricity, water, and infrastructure. But communities are often left without clear information about how these facilities may affect local resources, energy prices, and environmental health.

What do these developments mean for our water supply? How might these affect our energy grid and utility bills? How can communities ensure their voices are a part of the discussion that affect our shared resources? 

Join us for a community conversation about data centers, their impacts on communities, and potential solutions and protections—both locally and statewide.

This interactive event will include overviews of the landscape of data center development, the impacts on communities with data centers, and potential solutions to these problems. The brief presentations will be broken up by small breakout conversations where community members can share their perspectives and ask questions. The evening will conclude with an opportunity to identify next steps and develop community-informed actions.

Whether you’re new to the issue or already engaged, this event is an opportunity to learn, ask questions, and help shape how our communities respond to the growing data center industry.

We hope to see you there!
