Let's Get It Right!
Let's Get It Right! is the Shriver Center's initiative designed to ensure that welfare clients in Illinois receive the benefits and services they need to work. Through this initiative, the Center receives reports of recipient experiences with IDHS and its workers around the state. Using this information, the Center identifies specific areas of difficulty in TANF implementation From the information the Center receives, we continue to develop an agenda of issues that IDHS might address either in a local office or throughout the agency.
Send us your information!
For Let’s Get It Right! to reflect the full range of client experiences with workers and to identify accurately the most important problems and solutions, we need your help. You are strongly encouraged and invited to send stories about clients' experiences. Clients' names will not be used in the reports, nor will the names of advocates reporting on behalf of their clients.
Contact John Bouman, 312.263.3830 ext. 250. Or send in the reporting form.
