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. The Commission promotes cultural understanding through educational and entertaining programs offered to the community.
