The Mount Prospect Sister Cities Commission is composed of fifteen volunteer, community members appointed by the mayor with the consent of the Board of Trustees. Meetings are held bi-monthly at the Mount Prospect Village Hall, 50 S. Emerson Street.

The objective of the Sister Cities Commission is to encourage and facilitate programs and exchanges between Mount Prospect and its sister city. Participants in visits are responsible for their own travel expenses.

The Mount Prospect Sister Cities Commission is a member of Sister Cities International, which is a nonprofit citizen diplomacy network that creates and strengthens partnerships between U.S. and international communities.  They strive to build global cooperation at the municipal level, promote cultural understanding and stimulate economic development.

Mount Prospect and Sèvres, France, officially entered into their Sister City relationship in May of 2000 when a delegation from Sèvres first visited Mount Prospect. Since then, several exchanges have taken place on individual and group levels.

If you are interested in supporting or sponsoring the Commission, have a group and are interested in coordinating an exchange with Sèvres, or simply want to learn more about the Mount Prospect Sister Cities Commission, email sistercities@mountprospect.org and a Sister Cities member will respond.
