SPRINGFIELD —State Senator Adriane Johnson reaffirmed her commitment to improving access to essential services for Illinois families by championing legislation she outlined a press conference Friday to enhance oversight and accountability of the 2-1-1 helpline system.
“2-1-1 is a lifeline for people in crisis — whether they’re searching for a food pantry, emergency housing or mental health support,” said Johnson (D-Buffalo Grove). “We must ensure this service is working the way it should: quickly, efficiently and fairly.”
SPRINGFIELD — Student teachers in Illinois may soon have new opportunities for fair compensation, thanks to a measure championed by State Senator Adriane Johnson that passed the Senate.
“Student teachers are not volunteers — they’re future educators doing real, meaningful work in classrooms every single day,” said Johnson (D-Buffalo Grove). “This legislation breaks down outdated barriers that prevented them from being paid and opens the door for school districts, nonprofits, and higher education institutions to offer compensation.”
SPRINGFIELD — After an incarcerated man named Eddie Thomas died alone in a prison infirmary without receiving any end-of-life care, State Senator Adriane Johnson is championing legislation to bring dignity, compassion, and transparency to hospice and palliative care services in Illinois correctional facilities.
“This bill is about basic human dignity,” said Johnson (D-Buffalo Grove). “No one should die in pain, in isolation or without the comfort of care — no matter who they are or where they live. House Bill 2397 brings transparency to a system that too often leaves people to suffer silently.”
BUFFALO GROVE — To help local families access cultural and educational opportunities this summer, State Senator Adriane Johnson is once again offering free museum passes to 30th District residents through a partnership with the Indian Trails Public Library in Wheeling.
“Every child and family should be able to experience the wonder of discovery, whether it’s learning about our planet at a science museum or exploring history and art up close,” said Johnson (D-Buffalo Grove). “These passes remove financial barriers and help connect our community to world-class institutions right in our own backyard.”
