Illinois Won't Let Homes Close

The operators of two group homes in the Chicago area, including one in Evanston, maintain the state has drastically slashed their funding but won't let them close the homes where they say funds are now insufficient to provide adequate care.
Attorneys for the Lester and Rosalie Anixter Center, a long established Chicago-area nonprofit which has provided services since 1919, filed the lawsuit April 1, naming Michelle Sadler, secretary of the Illinois Department of Human Services, and Lilia Tennit, director of division of developmental disabilities, as the defendants.
