6th Annual Social Change Film Festival 2017 in Chicago

The Social Change Film Festival, now in its 6th year, was founded to leverage Chicago’s rich history of film, activism and philanthropy to shine a bright light on these critical, global issues and address them. 

Social Change is a national non-profit that transforms lives, organizations and systems via film, community capacity building, technical assistance, advocacy, and legal representation.
