They Deserve More Campaign. Let Your State Senators Know You Support This, And That They Should Too!
Senate Bill 3508 would increase the wages of the SU staff who do the truly important direct care. We’ve had great staff who love working with the people we serve who have had to leave to make living wages, which is awful for everyone. Please encourage your State Senator to support this critical bill.

What does Nathan’s DSP mean to him and his family? It means his mother can be reassured that Nathan is loved and cared for when she is not present. Rosa provides comfort to Nathan’s family because his mother can see how genuinely happy Nathan is in his group home. #TheyDeserveMore
Act today because Nathan deserves more. Write a note via email to your Illinois state senator urging them to YES on SB 3508 to ensure DSP like Rosa earn a living wage: http://www.theydeservemore.com/take-action
