LCCIL Helping You to Prepare for Emergencies

The recent pandemic has taught us that we aren’t as prepared as we thought. To help with this, LCCIL is working to prepare individuals with disabilities and their families with the tools needed to be ready for a disaster, emergency or pandemic. If you would like to learn more, feel free to contact Claudia Mancera at: 847-949-4440 ext. 212 or via email at cmancera@lccil.org.

May everyone continue to stay well and be kind!
