Therapy Skokie, IL

Counseling Morton Grove, Lincolnwood, Wilmette

Only 16 miles from Chicago lies Skokie, IL. Say the name out loud and you feel like you must have said it wrong, because no city can be that much fun to say. It sounds like an affectionate nickname given by a grandparent, which is fitting, because Skokie, IL has a way of making you feel like you've come home. Whether you're a small child beginning school, or an adult looking for a new start, this city with the funny name has what families have been looking for, like schools offering great classes and more. Old Orchard Junior High School, for instance, has an ACT club, in which children band together to adopt a village that needs help. By raising money for that village, great things get done, like schools being built where before there weren't any. There is a relatively large Jewish population around this area, so many museums deal with what happened to the Jews during World War II. One of these, the Illinois Holocaust Museum and Education Center, has a Room of Remembrance and Hall of Reflection. Here, names of victims of the holocaust line the walls.1 If our children don't forget, perhaps it won't be repeated.

Bullying is a serious issue that can pose many mental health challenges for children that are harassed as well as those who intimidate others. To build an environment in which all children feel safe and welcome, Skokie School District 69 has devised an anti-bullying plan that outlines unacceptable behaviors, explains appropriate punishments for acting out, and provides educational opportunities for children to learn about how to be positive and supportive of one another. Faculty and staff members join in learning how to effectively handle situations in which physical or mental harm is being done to a student. Additional details about this program can be obtained by calling 847-675-7666.4

Current Initiatives

The Heartland Alliance for Human Needs and Human Rights has undertaken an initiative to end the cycle of poverty for residents of Chicago and the surrounding suburbs. Housing is a number one priority, which is why the organization advocates for the construction of safe, affordable housing for individuals who experience homelessness. A key component of the housing advocacy program is to also include supportive services, such as job training and employment assistance, to give people the resources they need to improve their lives. The agency also seeks to protect the legal rights of vulnerable populations who face violence and discrimination.5
