Illinois government wants to control EVERY detail of your life. Starting in 2027 they are coming for your kids by mandating mental health screening in public schools.

Children belong to parents, not bureaucrats!

School Boards can make these screening Opt-In instead of requiring parents to Opt-Out. The information gathered on your child WILL NOT be keep within the school. It will be submitted to numerous other state agencies.

I’m not an expert on any of this and never will be. But, I know who is: https://www.awakeil.com/

Anyone who runs for school boards needs to make this priority one. Awake Illinois has a ton of information and Opt-Out forms the schools will attempt to ignore.

If parents don’t take action for their kids, nobody is going to protect them. Your child could get a mental health label because they are having a bad day. That label follows them for years.

Parents are responsible for the mental health of their children, start using it.
