Canal Corridor Association

Canal Corridor Association is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization dedicated to preserving history, protecting nature and open space, and creating tourism destinations in the I&M Canal National Heritage Corridor. Founded in 1981 (as the Upper Illinois Valley Association) to advocate for the creation of the I&M Canal National Heritage Corridor, CCA has been working tirelessly since then to make the corridor the destination it is today.

The Canal Corridor Association is the statewide partner of the National Trust for Historic Preservation in Illinois.
