It supports professional development, facilitates large interagency projects, and connects the federal workforce with the community, serving approximately 8.86 million residents across its jurisdiction.[1]

The Chicago Federal Executive Board operates under the Office of Personnel Management, which oversees the national network of FEBs to enhance federal workforce coordination and management outside Washington, D.C.[2]

Legislation

The Chicago FEB was established as part of the FEB system initiated by a Presidential Memorandum from President John F. Kennedy on November 10, 1961, rather than specific legislation tailored to Chicago.[3]

Partners

  • Local and state governments for community initiatives[4]
