It’s been a busy month in Springfield, where our team testified in subject matter hearings from the Human Service Equitable Pay Act and Human Service Professional Loan Repayment Program.

We also supported our partners at Forefront in providing testimony on the creation of a Nonprofit Lobbying Fee Waiver, and will be providing testimony at a Subject Matter Hearing in the House Human Service Appropriations Committee on May 2nd in support of increased funding for community-based human services.
Thank you to our colleagues at the Chicago Coalition for the Homeless, EasterSeals Joliet, Forefront, ICOY, and ICASA for your partnership and testimony, Representatives Lillian Jiménez and Lindsey LaPointe for your support and advocacy, and to the more than 400 of you who slipped in support of this legislation!
