Community Navigator

The Downers Grove Economic Development Corporation is proud to serve as a Community Navigator Program focused on retaining and growing small businesses within our community.  

 

Sponsored by the State of Illinois, Small Business Community Navigator Programs were originally introduced to serve underserved minority, rural, veteran and women-owned businesses. While Spark will help these businesses engage with available local, state and federal resources, DGEDC is committed to doing more.
