The city of Chicago has established a COVID-19 Response Center as a way to take extra precaution to prevent the spread of coronavirus through a densely populated city-center. The website for the Response Center can be found by clicking here.
The city encourages fighting stigma and fear by understanding the facts about COVID-19 and taking the effective precautionary steps recommended by health professionals. Support people returning from COVID-19 quarantine and help reduce the spread of rumors by letting people know that viruses cannot target people from specific populations, ethnicities, or racial backgrounds. More information can be found here.
I have also been actively speaking with aldermen from around the district in an effort to facilitate cooperation at a state and local level to ensure our community has the resources it needs. You can find more information about your local ward by clicking the name of your alderman in the list below:
- Ward 6: Alderman Roderick Sawyer
- Ward 7: Alderman Gregory L. Mitchell
- Ward 9: Alderman Anthony Beale
- Ward 8: Alderman Michelle Harris
- Ward 10: Alderman Susan Sadlowski Garza
- Ward 17: Alderman David Moore
- Ward 21: Alderman Howard Brookins Jr.
