Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The chronic shortage of paraprofessionals in Illinois is being addressed by a nonprofit program that operates on a $25 million grant from the Illinois Department of Human Services. These staffing issues increase operational strain on districts like Chicago Public Schools.

Darren Bailey campaigned in July to address the affordability crisis in Illinois, a trend currently driven by Chicago's high cost.
