Important Advocacy Update!

Our group, the IL EI Grassroots Alliance, is a small group of experienced EI therapists who believe that providers should have a louder voice in the IL EI system. After receiving almost 3000 supporters to this petition, we met with representatives from DHS, legislators offices and other advocacy groups!

DHS/EI Bureau are aware of the large numbers of providers leaving EI at this time and have asked for more information about WHY this is happening. So we are collecting numbers to share. This survey is for all current and past Illinois Early Intervention Providers (therapists). If that's you, CLICK THIS LINK:

This survey is intended to collect data about EI Providers, their current experiences in the system and what would improve working conditions. Results of this survey will be compiled and shared as we advocate for improvements. This survey is completely anonymous. There are a few areas where you can share your contact information if you choose to do so.

We are so thankful for this platform and for every one of you who signed our petition. We will keep in touch! If desired, you can reach out to us at eigrassrootsalliance@gmail.com!
