It's the season of giving! Thank you Ulta Beauty for graciously donating hygiene and beauty products to our Victim Support Services Unit. These products will be given to survivors of domestic violence and human trafficking in our care. At times, survivors are left with nothing, including basic self-care products. With this generous donation, we are able to work towards providing survivors with basic necessities that will aid in their well-being. We are so grateful for Ulta Beauty's contribution in helping us make a positive impact!

Sheriff Dart's Ready 4 Recovery program organized a tour for judges, states attorneys, and public defenders from the Skokie Drug Court program recently. Staff were able to meet with Haymarket Center, A Safe Haven Foundation, and Above and Beyond Family Recovery Center who provide supportive housing and treatment services for program participants. This outing gave court staff a great opportunity to see where many of the participants live while also giving treatment center staff a better understanding of what happens at drug court every week, and how the Sheriff's Ready 4 Recovery program provides transportation, connection, and community support.

The Cook County Sheriff's Office completed their final lockdown drills of the school year recently. In Illinois, schools must conduct at least one law enforcement lockdown drill each academic year to address an active shoot or threat. This drill must be completed no later than 90 days after the first day of school. These drills are designed to help practice and prepare for emergencies. Safety and security will always be our top priority and we appreciate all Cook County school districts for their ongoing cooperation and support for keeping their students and staff safe.
