While we continue to search for an effective prevention or treatment for Alzheimer’s and other dementias, we need to make sure the large and growing number of dementia caregivers are getting the support they need. Currently in Illinois, there are 590,000 individuals caring for a loved one wi…

Over the past few months I’ve had many meetings with a bipartisan group of state’s attorneys and law enforcement officials to make necessary changes to the SAFE-T Act.

I attended a senior fair hosted by the state’s attorney. He brought several countywide officials and a couple of county board members. It is a series of fairs targeted throughout the county. While the fair brought government to the people; it also brought some information that was not true.
